FAQs

How much does it cost to buy a coffee shop in California?

Prices vary depending on the size of the business listed, but the median asking price for an established coffee shop business in California is $244,500.

How much do coffee shop business owners earn?

California coffee shop and cafe owners report median annual sales of $420,000 and annual owner earnings of $100,000. These figures are based on businesses that have listed their annual revenue and seller's discretionary earnings.

How do I value a coffee shop business?

Valuing a coffee shop or café involves considering several factors, including annual sales, profit, growth (or decline) trends, and demographic trends of the local market.

Revenue multiples among coffee shops listed for sale in California range from 0.37 to 0.75, with the median at 0.54. Earnings multiples range from 1.69 to 3.90, with the median at 2.75. These values suggest the average coffee shop business in California may sell for around 0.54 times its annual revenue, and 2.75 times its annual owner’s earnings.
