Small Wholesale Artisan Bakery On A Belfast Estate

About this business
Started in 2022, this small artisan bakery works from a freehold unit on a Belfast industrial estate, baking sourdough, bagels and viennoiserie for cafés, delis and a weekly online order list collected from the door. It has a team of 4. Annual sales have risen from £231k to £270k, and EBITDA has risen to £18k, though margins remain thin. Because most trade is wholesale, the bakery could move to other premises, and a buyer could keep or sell the unit.
Key investment highlights
- Sales up every year since 2022
- Freehold unit on an industrial estate
- Wholesale to cafés and delis
- Asking price £80k against £100k net assets
Reason for sale
The founder has taken a full-time role elsewhere and cannot give the bakery the time it needs.
