Blacks Business Brokers Facilitates Successful Sale Of The Savvy Baker Cafe
Blacks Business Brokers are delighted to announce the successful sale of a popular and well-positioned café in one of Leeds’ most desirable locations. This established business, founded in 2022, quickly earned a glowing reputation for its freshly made cakes, sweet treats, and a tempting range of hot and cold drinks. Situated in a high footfall area with a mix of commercial and residential presence, the café had built a loyal local following while benefiting from constant passing trade thanks to its prime spot.
Nestled in a densely populated area of Leeds, not far from the renowned Roundhay Park, the premises stood out with a fully glazed frontage and prominent signage, offering a warm and inviting space. The interior included seating for seventeen patrons in a well-designed open-plan layout, complemented by a stylish servery and a kitchen equipped with fridges, pot wash, and more. The high standard of presentation throughout the premises underscored the care and effort the previous owner had poured into the business.
Although the café had been trading solidly with repeat customers and an established local presence, the owner made the difficult decision to sell due to other business interests requiring increased attention. Recognising the opportunity, Blacks Business Brokers stepped in to ensure a smooth and discreet transition to a new owner.
The new buyer takes over the business premises complete with all equipment, making it an ideal acquisition for someone ready to rebrand and take full advantage of the strong foundations laid by the previous owner. This opportunity was particularly suited to an entrepreneurial, hands-on operator with the vision and drive to continue growing a business in a thriving area. With a current lease of £187 per week, renewed in 2025 on a three-year Full Repair and Insure basis, and no requirement for staff transfer, the purchase offered both flexibility and potential for growth.
The financial performance of the café added to its appeal, with the accounts for the year ending 30th November 2024 showing a turnover of £80,918 and a gross profit of £41,586—impressive results for a business just two years into operation. The location, ambiance, and local reputation made this café a hidden gem with immense promise for those ready to add their own touch.
Megan Sutherst, the sales negotiator at Blacks Business Brokers, commented:
“It was a real pleasure working with the client and seeing the level of interest this business generated. The combination of its location, loyal customer base, and the opportunity to rebrand made it incredibly attractive to buyers. I’m thrilled to have helped facilitate a smooth and successful sale, and I wish the new owner all the best in taking the business to the next stage.”
Blacks Business Brokers once again demonstrated why they are the go-to agency for business sales, offering comprehensive support from valuation to completion. Their understanding of market dynamics and hands-on approach meant that this Leeds-based café was matched quickly and professionally with a suitable buyer.
