I have sold a Business at Listing # 220. Buy your own Ricky’s All Day Grill franchise restaurant in South Calgary.
Come and have a look at this well run Franchise restaurant on busy Macleod Trail is a fantastic location for a family run business. Located right next to a Holiday Inn and in a very busy mall, there is tons of drive by traffic at all times of the day and night. The restaurant is very clean and fully staffed, it just needs an energetic new owner to take over the reigns.
There is a great patio out front that is perfect fo the upcoming summer season, and not a regual feature of a Ricky's franchise. The cash flow is strong and has the potential to be increased with some localized marketing. The current owners are ready to retire and spend more time with the grandkids.

Here is a new listing that I am happy to post in Calgary. A great opportunity to acquire an established Calgary plumbing, heating, cooling and HVAC business, along with the commercial property it operates from. Opportunities like this don't come up often, especially when you can purchase both the operating business and the real estate together.

Included in the sale is the Calgary commercial property that serves as the company's home base. The building supports day-to-day operations with space for administration, dispatch, storage, vehicles, tools, inventory, and future expansion. Owning the real estate adds another layer of value, giving a buyer stability, flexibility, and the ability to benefit from both the operating business and the underlying property.
