Underperforming Deli with Strong History & Clear Path to Recovery

Seller Motivated – Entertaining All Reasonable Offers

This is a value-add opportunity to acquire a fully built-out deli in a prime Nassau County location with a proven track record of significantly higher performance.

Prior to current ownership, the business generated approximately $500K in annual revenue with ~$100K net income. Since then, despite recent renovations and equipment upgrades, performance has declined due to absentee ownership and lack of operational focus.

The underlying fundamentals of the location remain intact—this is an execution issue, not a market issue.

Current Performance

• Approx. $255K annual revenue
• Approx. $30K net income
• Operating below potential due to limited oversight and inconsistent execution

What You’re Acquiring

• Proven location with historical ~$500K revenue
• Renovated space with updated equipment and infrastructure
• Established neighborhood presence with repeat customer base
• Fully operational deli ready for immediate takeover
• Transferable homemade recipes

Why This Opportunity Exists

Ownership is currently focused on another location and has not been able to dedicate the time required to maintain performance at this store.

This has resulted in:

• Inconsistent operations
• Reduced customer retention
• Missed revenue opportunities

Operational Upside

A hands-on operator can drive immediate improvement through:

• Consistent owner presence and oversight
• Restoring product quality and service standards
• Extending operating hours
• Re-engaging the local customer base

Additional upside through:

• Third-party delivery (Uber Eats, DoorDash, etc.)
• Catering and local account development
• Digital presence and marketing
• Updated branding and signage

With proper execution, there is a clear path to restoring—and potentially exceeding—prior performance levels.

Why This Deal Works

• Proven revenue history significantly above current levels
• Recently upgraded facility reduces capital expenditure
• Immediate cash flow with substantial upside
• Located in a strong Nassau County retail corridor
• Priced to reflect current performance and motivate a sale

Ideal Buyer

• Experienced deli, bagel, or QSR operator
• Hands-on owner looking for a turnaround opportunity
• Operator seeking a second location with upside

Important Note

This is an operational turnaround and is best suited for an experienced, hands-on buyer. Not a passive investment.
