The numbers at a glance

About the business

Two established fish & chip shops in family-oriented suburbs of southern Perth, built under one brand by the same owner over more than ten years.

A modern take on the classic: fresh fish and chips, seafood baskets, burgers, tacos and family packs. Both shops have modern fit-outs, and all the equipment is owned by the business and included in the sale.

Built for an owner-operator

Both shops run under paid managers today, and the owner works no hours. Step into a manager's role and that wage becomes your income.

What the shops earned in FY2026 (the year to 30 June 2026):

• As run today, with every manager paid: about $198,000
• One working owner running one shop and covering the head-office role: about $274,000
• Two working owners, one in each shop: about $315,000

At $650,000, the price is about 2.4 times one working owner's earnings. Those earnings have risen in each of the last three years:

• FY2024: about $197,000
• FY2025: about $227,000
• FY2026: about $274,000

Buy both shops, or just one

Both shops are for sale together, or either shop on its own. Each price is about 2.4 times what one working owner would have earned running it in FY2026:

• Both shops together: $650,000 plus stock (one working owner about $274,000)
• Shop A on its own: $476,000 plus stock (one working owner about $198,500)
• Shop B on its own: $280,000 plus stock (one working owner about $116,900)

Buying both saves about $106,000 on the two separate prices. Which shop is which is set out in the information pack. If the shops are sold separately, the brand goes with one shop by agreement.

How the figures were prepared

They come from the business's own accounts, split shop by shop, with every adjustment listed:

• Manager wages and the head-office role are added back, as shown above. The head-office cost is one team member who splits her time between some prep for the shops and the owner's other business, and an owner-operator can easily take on this role

The figures are being finalised with the vendor's accountant. Once that's done, your accountant is welcome to review them in full.

The trading numbers

• About $1.0M turnover in FY2026 across the two shops, ex GST, from the POS records
• About 45% of sales through the business's own online ordering, with no marketplace commission
• Cash is about 7% of takings
• Wages including super are about 18% of sales, before the head-office role
• A large base of Google reviews averaging over 4.4 stars
• A regular weekly catering contract and a customer list of about 54,000 people

What comes with the sale

Future growth

• Expand the catering. A regular weekly catering contract brings in about $41,000 a year from one shop today. The same service can run from the second shop, and more customers of the same kind can be added
• An owner-operator running the stores will increase sales and profitability
• Work the customer list. About 27,000 people on it can be contacted today, and it has never been systematically marketed to
• Open longer. Both shops trade dinner only, 7 days, so lunch and longer hours are untouched
• Grow delivery. Third-party delivery has been deliberately capped, so there is room to grow it

Why it's for sale, and the terms

The owner is now building another business, which isn't related to fish and chips, and is looking at his options. He's comfortable keeping the shops under management, and is open to selling at the right price.

• Price: $650,000 for both shops, or Shop A $476,000 or Shop B $280,000 on its own, plus stock at value (about $25,000 across both shops at 30 June 2026)
• Both premises are leased, and the leases are to be assigned
• Offered as a going concern: both shops together, or either shop on its own
• The owner is happy to sign a non-compete agreement as part of the sale

Every figure is evidenced in a full data room for qualified buyers under a confidentiality agreement. The business name and locations are disclosed on signing.
