Well this is a first for me. A client texted me yesterday to let me know that he was sorry that the café in Canmore that he was considering buying had “ditched”. Unsure of what he meant, I called to ask. He informed me that a family member who lives in Canmore was told that the owners of the restaurant had done a “midnight move” and stripped the place bare. Not only that, but they had left a DEAD horse on the front lawn!

Here is a new listing that I am happy to post in Calgary, Calgary. With a 20yr history of serving great pizza, it is time for this owner to retire! This well regarded and successful pizza restaurant has been run by the same owner in the same location with great results. The store is really a stand out, with a double deck chain drive oven and a fully vented kitchen, you could continue the current operation and run a ghost kitchen out the back door. There are a few seats for people to eat in or sit and wait for their pick up orders. The store is immaculately clean and well organized with the possibility of leveraging the brand history to open more locations. The potential is very strong to take this business and increase the cash flow with new energy and new revenue streams. Call to get all the details and the correct location info on this successful business. |
