Facilities & Assets An award-winning 11,500 sq. ft. building on a one-acre lot, conveying with the land as a single package. Solar panels, energy-efficient appliances, recycled water cooling, and sustainable materials throughout. The $880K FF&E base covers walk-in coolers and cases in every department, a full commercial kitchen, a production bakery with deck ovens and dough sheeter, an in-house butcher shop, and front-end check stands and fixtures. A whole-store backup generator keeps the doors open through coastal outages that close competitors. The store trades seven days a week with a café, screened porch, and private event space. Inventory conveys at cost. Blueprints available to qualified buyers with proof of funds.
Support & Training A managed operation rather than an owner-dependent one, with department leadership across butcher, seafood, produce, bakery, and café. Transition training covers vendor and farm introductions, contract relationships, merchandising, kitchen and catering operations, the custom POS system, and inventory management.
Market & Competition Beaufort County has grown more than 40 percent since 2020, with median household income near $111,000. The store sits minutes from Hilton Head Island and its 2.5 million annual visitors, 30 minutes from Beaufort, 45 from Savannah. Traffic has held at 129 to 154 customers per day since 2022 with average tickets of $30 to $36. It competes on curation, not price, backed by a network of nearly 100 local farms, fishermen, and makers no chain can rebuild.
Growth & Expansion The nearest opportunities require activation, not capital. Catering and private events are established. Bakery carries a 70 percent margin and the kitchen 65 percent with fixed costs already absorbed, so extending breakfast, lunch, and dinner service converts existing grocery traffic into the highest-margin sales in the store. Capital projects follow: a full-service butcher and coastal seafood program, expanded bakery shifts, and wholesale distribution of the LCF-branded line. Washington Square is delivering hundreds of residential units into the immediate trade area, positioning Lowcountry Fresh as the anchor grocer.
Two edits worth flagging. I cut the "award-winning brand, profits, and service makes this a triple threat" line, since claiming profits in marketing copy sits awkwardly against the recast and invites a question you would rather answer on your own terms in the CIM. I also cut "unlimited growth potential," which reads as filler next to the specific margin figures doing the real work in that section.
