Business Overview:

Own a newly remodeled Baskin-Robbins, one of the most recognized ice cream brands in the world, serving the same affluent Fairfax County, Virginia neighborhood from the same storefront for nearly 40 years. The store sits in a grocery-anchored neighborhood shopping center in Fairfax County, one of the highest-income counties in the United States. There is no dessert outlet of any kind within one mile, and the nearest other Baskin-Robbins is about 3.5 miles away. Families in the area have been buying birthday cakes and summer scoops here for two generations. The heavy lifting is done. The store completed a full construction and equipment remodel in spring 2026, approved by the franchisor with no outstanding remodel requirements. Recent investments include new front-line dipping cabinets, digital menu boards, a replaced walk-in freezer compressor, and new prep equipment including blenders, an ice maker, a mixer and a photo-cake printer. A buyer steps into a fresh store without facing a major capital outlay in the early years of ownership. What you get: - Approx. $505,000 in FY2025 revenue per the filed tax return (about $449,000 of POS net sales plus tips and sales tax collected) - Approx. $78,000 of FY2025 Seller's Discretionary Earnings, with no owner salary, no interest expense and no aggressive add-backs - Books reconciled to the filed tax returns and to POS reports - About 40 flavors, including dairy-free options, plus sundaes, shakes, take-home packs and ice cream cakes - A diversified mix: in-store sales about 73% of POS net sales, ice cream cakes about 17%, mobile app and delivery about 10% - An owned, freezer-equipped event trailer for schools, senior communities and private events - A trained cake decorator and a part-time crew already in place - A franchise agreement that runs through 2033, longer than the current lease Light owner hours. The current owners work about 30 hours a week combined, roughly 20 in the store and 10 on administration, largely remotely. Baskin-Robbins (part of Inspire Brands) supplies products, recipes, national advertising, a mobile app with rewards, delivery integrations (Uber Eats, DoorDash, Grubhub) and business consulting support. Clear upside. The sellers have not pursued local marketing. School and community fundraisers, local social media, a scheduled event-trailer calendar, expanded custom-cake capacity and a post-remodel review campaign are all available to an engaged owner with little capital. Asset sale, free and clear, with FF&E, leasehold improvements, goodwill and the event trailer included. Inventory is purchased at cost at closing. The transfer is subject to Baskin-Robbins approval and landlord consent. Cash buyers are preferred; qualified buyers using bank or SBA financing will be considered with full payment at closing. A Confidential Information Memorandum with full financials is available to qualified buyers after signing an NDA. Please do not contact the store, its employees, the landlord or Baskin-Robbins. All inquiries go through the listing broker.

Market Competition and Expansion:

The store is the neighborhood's only dessert destination: a September 2026 survey found no dessert outlet of any kind within one mile, and the nearest other Baskin-Robbins is about 3.5 miles away. The main competition sits in a single destination-retail corridor 1.5 to 2.5 miles away, with several frozen-custard, soft-serve, frozen-yogurt and independent creamery operators, and cookie concepts compete for the same dessert occasion. Fairfax County is one of the highest-income counties in the U.S., with strong family demand for celebrations and ice cream cakes. The store's position is neighborhood convenience, supported by the Baskin-Robbins brand, cake capability and an event trailer that most nearby competitors lack.
