A locally developed icecream concept, Kiwi Stone, along with its New Zealand master franchise and the ongoing operation of its pilot store in Newmarket, are being marketed by Paolo Delmonte of Affiliated Business Consultants (ABC).
“In addition to buying the nationwide marketing franchise of Kiwi Stone, it is possible the international franchising operation could also be purchased,” Delmonte says.
Kiwi Stone leases a 20 sq m store in the 277 Mall in Newmarket, where two full-time employees serve hand-made icecream “seven days a week”.
“It’s a rare opportunity to buy into a proven system,” Delmonte says. “The business has a successful store generating a cash flow of $5300 a week and also provides a base for training and product development. The total asking price is $135,000 – little more than we would expect the store to sell for by itself.”
Kiwi Stone was founded in 2003 by three partners: Peter Gillies, Richard Mabin and John Brewer. After travelling the world looking for business opportunities, they came up with their own idea for making icecreams and decided this country was the perfect place to do it
