Rare opportunity to acquire a fully operational, three-location artisan bakery and café brand deeply rooted in Miami's most desirable neighborhoods — Edgewater, Brickell, and Miami Beach. This is a true turnkey acquisition for investors and owner-operators alike, with 100% operational continuity, an experienced management team already in place, and revenue generating across all three locations from day one. At the core of the business is a centralized production facility that acts as the engine of the brand — supplying fresh product daily to all retail locations while representing significant untapped capacity for wholesale distribution and catering with minimal additional capital investment. The systems, staff, and supply chain are built and running; a new owner steps into momentum, not a project. Visa-eligible status adds a meaningful layer of buyer accessibility, making this an exceptional pathway for international investors pursuing U.S. residency through a proven, income-producing enterprise. Opportunities like this — a branded, multi-unit concept with real back-of-house infrastructure, prime Miami real estate footprints, and built-in scalability — rarely come to market in South Florida.
