Blacks Business Brokers Facilitates Successful Sale Of Eataliano
Blacks Business Brokers is proud to announce the successful sale of Eataliano, a thriving city-centre food business in the heart of Leeds. This well-established, fast-paced eatery has become a firm favourite with local professionals, commuters, and office workers since first opening its doors in 2018. Known for its freshly prepared breakfasts, lunches, snacks, and drinks, Eataliano has built a strong reputation for quality and speed – ideal for its bustling urban location. Under current ownership since 2023, the business has only grown stronger, thanks to a combination of a dedicated customer base, excellent online reviews, and wide delivery reach through platforms like Deliveroo, JustEat, and UberEats.
Occupying a prime lower ground floor space on a busy Leeds road, Eataliano enjoys significant foot traffic, with its customer base fuelled by the many office buildings, hotels, pubs, apartments, and retail units nearby. The area is known for its strong public transport links and convenient parking, making it accessible to both walk-in customers and delivery services. With large signage above a fully glazed frontage and a smartly branded interior, the business stands out as a sleek and professional operation in a competitive local market.
Inside, Eataliano is compact but impressively equipped. A large refrigerated servery greets customers at the entrance, supported by a fully fitted kitchen featuring stainless steel worktops, commercial fridges and freezers, a Merrychef oven, double deep fat fryer, salad bar fridges, and a high-end coffee machine and grinder. There is seating for four at the front, with additional functional areas including a wash-up zone, a storage room, staff toilets, and rear access for deliveries and refuse management. The setup is both practical and flexible, offering the perfect environment for fast, high-quality food service.
The decision to sell came as a result of our client’s relocation, presenting a golden opportunity for a new owner-operator or team to continue building on an already successful business. With clear potential to extend opening hours, tap into weekend trade, and enhance marketing strategies further, the next chapter for Eataliano is full of promise.
To manage the sale, the seller appointed Blacks Business Brokers, a trusted name in independent business sales. Chosen for their hands-on approach, industry expertise, and wide buyer reach, Blacks took charge of the sale from valuation to completion, ensuring every detail was managed with professionalism and care. The transaction was overseen by Sales Negotiator Joanne Booth, who worked closely with the seller to understand the business, market it effectively, and liaise with potential buyers.
Reflecting on the sale, Joanne Booth said: “Eataliano stood out immediately as a well-run, high-performing business in a fantastic location. The equipment, layout, and loyal customer base made it extremely attractive to buyers. It was a pleasure to work with the seller and help secure a buyer who shares the same enthusiasm for food and service. I’m excited to see where the new owners take it.”
Joanne’s role was critical in highlighting the business’s key strengths – including its online presence, delivery partnerships, and potential for growth – to the right type of buyer. Blacks’ national network and proactive marketing approach meant the listing gained strong attention soon after launch. This allowed for a swift and smooth sales process, handled with transparency and care on both sides.
The sale of Eataliano is a great example of how an independent business with strong fundamentals can attract serious buyer interest, even in a competitive city-centre environment. What made the difference in this case was a combination of operational excellence, visibility, and the right support from a professional broker. For those considering selling a business, whether in foodservice or another sector, the message is clear – preparation, presentation, and partnership matter.
