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. Sometimes I get unique opportunities that come up for sale and this is one of them!
A rare chance to buy a Bar \ Lounge with a very cool entertainment component. The business is built on family fun, a place for young people to gather and an amazing opportunity to build a very strong corporate team building business as well. There is a small kitchen that is easily operated by staff, without the need for a formal Chef or cooking staff, but you could also explore the idea of putting in a formal full scale kitchen.
The rent is VERY reasonable and the whole operation can be run with minimal staff, making it a desirable business model for an ambitious young operator to take to the next level. There are so many things that you need to know about this opportunity, so make a point of checking out this very cool business opportunity. 
Here is a new listing that I am happy to post in Calgary. 4 QSR Locations in Alberta For Sale - Keep The Concept Or Convert To Your Own Business Model The location sizes vary between 473 sq. ft. and 1,176 sq. ft. and are all storefront locations with parking and street access. Rents and length of term are also varied with each location. A rare opportunity to acquire a four-location restaurant portfolio operating under an established quick-service food concept. This offering includes multiple professionally built-out stores with existing infrastructure, leaseholds, equipment, and operating systems already in place. For a buyer looking to step into an existing platform, the current concept can be continued, subject to any required approvals and assignment of the applicable agreements. For an experienced operator, franchise group, emerging brand, or entrepreneur with their own food service model, these locations also offer excellent conversion potential. Each store is already designed for quick-service restaurant use, making them well suited for a buyer who wants to bring in their own concept, menu, branding, and operating style, subject to landlord approval of the proposed tenancy and use. This is an attractive opportunity for a buyer seeking scale without starting from scratch. The existing restaurant improvements may significantly reduce the time, cost, and uncertainty normally associated with opening new food service locations. The stores may be acquired as part of a continued operating concept or repositioned into a new brand, provided the buyer obtains all necessary landlord, licensing, and regulatory approvals. Business name, exact locations, financial details, and further operating information 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. |
