Well my trip to Edmonton was very positive for a number of different reasons, but one of which is VERY interesting.
I stopped into West Edmonton Mall after a meeting to grab a bite. As I walked down Bourbon Street, feeling like I was back in Vegas, I decided to park myself at a table in Hudson's. Now this is not my first time at Hudson's, but it was at this location, and it's beautiful! Lot's of TV's, a warm inviting atmosphere and very friendly service proved that I made the right choice. I looked...

Well.. needless to say it was another rockin evening in Calgary's Pumphill district, as the 11th Annual Red Meat Party surged into the night. Countless friends, colleagues and client's of Kahane Law enjoyed the Studio 54 themed festivities with bell bottom jeans, Afro's of every color and description and the best collection of platform shoes I have seen since watching re-runs of Starsky and Hutch.
The food was once again indescribable, as every type of red meat you can think of was BBQ'd, smoked and...

Here is a new listing that I am happy to post in Calgary.
LOCATION WITHHELD AT SELLER REQUEST - EITHER KEEP THE CURRENT CONCEPT OR BRING YOUR OWN, THIS IS AN EASY CONVERSION IF THAT'S YOUR PLAN. A long operating inner city restaurant with strong profits and a loyal neighbourhood following. This well established business has developed a solid reputation for relaxed evening dining and small celebrations and continues to receive positive local recommendations. The operation is efficient and easy to manage with a compact layout, limited staffing requirements and systems that work well for an owner operator or small management group. The menu focuses on traditional house prepared Italian favourites such as pasta, veal parmesan, calamari and signature sauces. Situated near busy inner city amenities, the restaurant benefits from repeat local customers as well as regular visitor traffic. Lease terms are very favourable for the area and the setup supports dinner service with potential to expand hours, host private functions and continue the established catering business. Customers regularly comment on the welcoming atmosphere, consistent food quality and attentive service. The sale includes a fully equipped kitchen and dining room, established menus and supplier connections, transferable vendor relationships, and financial and lease information available to qualified buyers. A confidentiality agreement is required prior to releasing the full due diligence package. THE SELLER SAYS BRING HIM AN OFFER! 
Here is a new listing that I am happy to post in Calgary.
Here is a great opportunity to acquire an existing quick service restaurant location in a strong northwest Calgary trade area without having to start from scratch. This location is already built out for food service use and may appeal to an owner operator, growing local brand, franchise group, or buyer looking for a ready-made restaurant space that can be operated under the existing concept or potentially converted to a new food service model.
The space benefits from an established commercial area with surrounding residential growth, steady traffic, and access to a customer base that supports takeout, dine in, and delivery style operations. The existing improvements may help reduce the time, cost, and uncertainty that typically comes with opening a new restaurant location.
A buyer may choose to continue with the current concept, subject to the required approvals and agreements, or explore bringing in their own restaurant brand, menu, and operating style. Any change in concept, use, assignment, or tenancy would be subject to landlord approval and any applicable municipal, licensing, and regulatory requirements.
Business name, exact location, lease information, and additional operating details will only be released to qualified buyers after a signed confidentiality agreement has been received. 
Here is a new listing that I am happy to post in Okotoks.
**Established Community Liquor Retailer with Real Estate Ownership Opportunity**
This locally trusted liquor retailer has built a strong reputation for friendly, knowledgeable service and a well curated product mix that appeals to both everyday shoppers and discerning enthusiasts. With consistent customer traffic and strong community goodwill, the business operates as a reliable neighbourhood destination known for quality selection and convenience.
The store features a broad and diverse inventory of beer, wine and spirits sourced from both domestic producers and international markets. Customers enjoy access to popular national brands, premium imports, and a thoughtful mix of craft offerings. The wine portfolio spans Old World and New World regions, offering approachable everyday selections alongside premium bottles suited for entertaining and gifting. The spirits category is comprehensive, including Canadian and International Whiskies, Vodka, Gin, Rum, Tequila, Scotch, Liqueurs, Brandy and Cognac, providing balanced appeal across multiple price points and customer preferences. Complementing the core categories are Coolers, Ciders, “Ready-to-Drink” beverages, non alcoholic options, and essential add on products such as mixers and ice, reinforcing its position as a convenient one stop shop.
A significant differentiating factor is the opportunity to acquire the real estate along with the business. Ownership of the underlying property provides long term stability, protection against rising lease costs, and the potential for future appreciation an increasingly rare advantage in today’s retail environment. For owner operators seeking control over occupancy costs, or investors looking for both operating income and tangible asset security, this combined business and real estate offering represents a compelling and well balanced acquisition opportunity. |
