Established Dubai Cafeteria — Dine-In & Delivery

Overview

An excellent opportunity to acquire a well-established cafeteria and casual dining business in the high-footfall area of Nadd Al Hamar, Dubai. Operating from this location since 2015; the current owner has run it for the last two years. The spacious 882 sq. ft. outlet supports kitchen, takeaway, delivery handling and customer service, and the trade license is valid — a new owner takes over a fully operational setup. The cafeteria operates under a recognized local franchise brand — stronger market identity, customer familiarity, menu recognition and brand support than an independent cafeteria. Known for high-volume casual dining: shawarma, grills, juices, sandwiches and fast-moving cafeteria food. A 5% royalty on net sales is payable under the franchise arrangement. The business mainly caters to the local Emirati and Arabic-speaking customer base. Menu: shawarma, grills, fresh juices, sandwiches, tea, coffee, breakfast, desserts and other popular F&B items — dine-in, takeaway and delivery. 2024 P&L: revenue approx. AED 2.56M, gross profit approx. AED 1.34M, net profit approx. AED 305,905 (net margin approx. 11.94%). Fully operational with a trained team of 14 (manager, cashier, sandwich and juice makers, packing staff, drivers, cleaner, waiters); monthly staff salaries approx. AED 21,500. Annual rent approx. AED 232,000. Reason for Sale: the current owner is 76 and selling due to age and the demands of daily operations — the outlet would benefit from fresh energy and hands-on management. Asking Price: AED 600,000, open to negotiation — reflecting the operating location, established customer base, franchise association, 2024 revenue performance, trained staff and immediate trading history. Ideal for an owner-operator, F&B investor or existing restaurant group. Full details (financials, trade license, lease, franchise terms, staff and operational records) provided upon NDA.
