Highly successful bakery for sale

Asking price €469,000.00

We, Henk (baker) and Sabine (cheese master), completely transformed our bakery in 2015 from a store that sold wallpaper, paint, and more into a bakery with two ovens. In addition to our wide selection of bread, rolls, and pastries, we also offer a fine selection of cheeses, along with jams, coffees, hot chocolate, dairy products, and deli meats...

Our specialty is our bread, rolls, and pastries made with fresh butter. On Fridays and Saturdays, we also bake fresh, crispy rolls at 4 p.m.

Our customers are mainly from Heule, Gullegem, and Bissegem, but some also come from farther away (Kuurne, Harelbeke, St. Eloois Winkel, Kortrijk, etc.) because of our delicious products. We’ve also been named the best bakery in Kortrijk twice by Het Nieuwsblad and received a trophy from “Ik Koop Lokaal.”

The price includes the entire building (which could be converted into living space with minor renovations above the bakery) and a fully equipped bakery (10 years old) with two ovens (deck and rotary), numerous machines, a refrigerated and freezer room, and more. The shop is also 10 years old and features two refrigerated display counters, a refrigerator, a walk-in refrigerator, movable bread racks, a vacuum sealer, a cash register with a scanning system, and more... It’s also important to note that our business is wheelchair and walker accessible. Behind the building, there’s also a cozy garden, which is definitely an added bonus if you plan to live above the shop.

The roof is completely asbestos-free and was recently fully renovated and insulated. In addition, there are solar panels on our roof, as well as on the flat roof above the workshop. Our energy certificate with a B rating means that our building is energy-efficient. This is certainly another plus for young entrepreneurs just starting out.

Our bakery is located near the center of Heule, along major access roads, close to schools, and more. There are three Shop&Go parking lots in front of the store, as well as numerous parking options in the neighborhood just a few steps away from the store.

Our team consists of 10 part-time employees and student workers on a rotating schedule every fourteen days—all top-notch individuals who, together with us, share our passion with our customers. Having a team ready to take over is definitely a plus for the new owners!

Why are we selling our bakery? The night shifts—baker Henk has been in the baking trade for 44 years—are starting to take their toll on Henk, and Sabine’s physical limitations led us to decide to look for a buyer who shares our passion for baking.

It’s also worth noting that there’s definitely room for growth, particularly in pastry, since a baker-pastry chef recently closed his shop in Heule. That’s another asset for a young entrepreneur to capitalize on!

If you’re interested in meeting us and taking a look at our bakery, feel free to call Sabine at 0493636889.

**** Our space is also suitable for a catering business, a produce shop, etc. ****

A baker through and through.
