Cafe & Gelato Franchise | Under Management | Strong Net Profit | Lower North Shore NSW

C9 Chocolate & Gelato is a well-established dessert café franchise located in Sydney’s highly sought-after Lower North Shore, boasting over 10 years of successful trading history. Positioned on a busy street, the business benefits from strong foot traffic and excellent local visibility.

The store presents exceptionally well, featuring a modern fit-out, a spacious dine-in area, and equipment maintained in excellent condition. Additional highlights include generous storage space, a walk-in cool room, and four dedicated parking spaces, an uncommon advantage in this area.

This is a fully under-management operation with a capable, well-trained team already in place, making it an ideal opportunity for investors or buyers seeking a proven, low-involvement business.

Business Highlights

• Fully managed
• Strong annual profit of approx. $154,000 under management
• Potential to exceed $225,000 in profit for an owner-operator
• Experienced team handling all daily operations
• 30 indoor seats with a comfortable dine-in environment
• Large premises with walk-in cool room and ample storage
• 4 dedicated parking spaces included in the lease
• CCTV security system installed
• Open 7 days (11:30am–10pm weekdays, extended weekend hours)

Securing quality premises is one of the biggest challenges in hospitality—but this opportunity already has it covered. The business comes with a secure lease through to December 2030, plus a further 4-year option extending tenure to 2034.

WHY FRANCHISE? WHY C9?

C9 Chocolate & Gelato offers:

• Proven brand with strong customer recognition
• Franchisor support from day one, including a 2-week training period at no cost to the buyer
• An on-trend, all-season dessert menu that drives consistent foot traffic year-round — not just in summer
• Marketing and operational frameworks already established, so you hit the ground running
• Resale confidence — this is an established, income-generating store, not a greenfields startup

For first-time business owners, the franchise model offers structure, support, and a lower risk profile compared to an independent cafe. For experienced operators, it offers a scalable, semi-passive investment with room to grow.
