Coffee, Ice Cream & Bakery
Turnkey 5-Location Cookies Franchise | Scalable & Automated
Business Description
Rare opportunity to acquire a dominant 5-unit dessert franchise portfolio serving the greater Oklahoma City metro area. This highly systemized operation features an experienced management team, strong brand recognition, diversified locations, and semi-absentee ownership with the current owner working only 10-12 hours per week.
Established over the past 6 years, this multi-unit franchise portfolio has become one of the most recognized premium dessert operators in the Oklahoma City market, with broad geographic coverage across multiple high-traffic suburban trade areas.
Key Financial Highlights
- Annual Revenue: $5.65 Million
- Seller’s Discretionary Earnings: $1.14 Million
- Strong 20.3% SDE Margin During Peak Mature Operating Year
Operational Overview
The business is operated through a highly developed management structure led by a long-tenured Regional Manager who oversees all day-to-day operations, staffing, training, ordering, scheduling, and store-level execution.
Each store operates with dedicated General Managers and cross-trained support staff, creating operational redundancy and minimizing key-person risk. The owner’s role is primarily administrative and strategic, focused on high-level oversight rather than daily store operations.
Reason for Sale
The seller is pursuing other business interests and is looking to transition out as the franchise evolves into new product categories that no longer align with his long-term goals. This is not a distress sale.
Growth Opportunities
- Expand high-margin off-site catering and event sales
- Add a dedicated commission-based catering sales representative
- Capitalize on new “dirty soda” revenue category rollout
- Continue scaling recently opened locations toward full-year revenue potential
- Expand community partnerships with schools, churches, and local businesses
- Further geographic expansion opportunities within the Oklahoma City metro
Ideal Buyer Profile
This opportunity is ideal for a multi-unit operator, franchise investor, family office, or entrepreneur seeking a scalable, branded food-service business with infrastructure already in place. The combination of experienced management, diversified locations, strong customer loyalty, and semi-absentee operations creates a rare turnkey platform with immediate upside potential.
