Turnkey Liquor Store — Loyal Customer Base & Growth Potential
Overview
Exceptional opportunity to acquire a brick commercial property featuring two separate storefronts and an oversized rear shop. The north storefront houses a well-established liquor store serving Russell and the surrounding communities. The store operates as a turnkey business with a loyal base of repeat customers and a proven local inventory mix.
Flexible Revenue Opportunity
The south storefront (the other half of a 3,000 sq. ft. brick building) is a blank canvas—ideal for a complementary retail business, an independent tenant, or continued owner-occupancy. This flexibility creates multiple income or growth strategies: expand operations, lease the space, or introduce a new concept that benefits from the liquor store’s foot traffic.
Exceptional Shop and Support Space
Behind the storefronts sits a substantial 40’ × 80’ shop featuring four overhead doors, a walkthrough door, concrete flooring, an office area, and a restroom—an asset that significantly enhances the property’s value and versatility for storage, service work, or rental income.
The liquor store business has cultivated a loyal base of repeat customers and is known for friendly, personalized service. Years of operation have produced an inventory assortment tailored to local preferences, creating a reliable sales mix and strong community reputation. A large parking lot makes it easy accessible and the drive thru is a convenient touch for customers on the go.
Assets included furniture, fixtures & equipment including commercial refrigeration cooler systems, retail shelving and displays, computer/POS equipment, cigar humidor, security cameras, signage, and other operating assets.
Approximate alcohol inventory included in the current asking price, is approximately $85-95k (sold separately from the real estate). Final inventory value will be determined at cost based on a physical count at closing.
