Business Overview
About the Company
This is a rare opportunity to take over a fully operational artisanal chocolate business with a strong identity built around authenticity, health, and flavor\. The business has been in operation for seven years and produces a range of products including chocolate bars, barks, truffles, and other variations—all made using a single\-sourced cacao from a dedicated farm in Ecuador\. Every product is crafted using no more than four core ingredients, focusing on purity and nutritional value\. Chocolate bars range from 55% to 100% cacao, including low\-calorie and sugar\-free options, and are designed to offer functional benefits as well as indulgence\.
The business operates out of a leased 1,300\-square\-foot facility that combines a compact, efficient manufacturing space with a customer\-facing retail store\. All chocolate\-making equipment, packaging tools, and operating systems are included in the sale\. The layout is practical, and a brand\-new espresso machine has been installed with the intention to expand into coffee service using high\-quality Ecuadorian coffee—creating a clear path for a buyer to increase foot traffic and revenue\.
Despite its potential, the business has never relied on advertising or a sales team\. It runs well under capacity and has yet to tap into e\-commerce, wholesale, or even local marketing efforts\. The brand’s story, product quality, and sourcing model create strong foundations for future growth in retail, online sales, and specialty food markets\.
There is very limited competition in the area for this type of product, especially one with a transparent, traceable supply chain and a health\-conscious approach\. The current owners are selling due to personal and family reasons, and they are committed to ensuring a smooth transition\. They will provide one full week of hands\-on training, along with written guides and operating procedures\. Additional support and insight into production, logistics, and customer handling will also be included\.
