About this Business for sale in Auckland Surrounds

Iconic Food Manufacturing Business for Sale!

Looking to acquire a standout manufacturer with deep roots, national presence, and untapped growth potential? This iconic New Zealand dessert brand is your next sweet success.

Note: This business is currently located outside of Auckland, but a astute buyer will notice that relocating the business to a major city would produce savings.

This well-established manufacturing business has been delighting New Zealand consumers since the early 1970s and was streamlined under current ownership in 2014. Operating from a centralised production facility in Dunedin, it supplies both of the country’s leading supermarket chains along with major foodservice distributors—delivering consistently high-quality products with industry-leading turnaround times.

Since its inception, business has evolved from a franchise model into a single powerhouse operation with room to scale. With previous exports to the USA, Dubai, and Australia, including specialty kosher products, international expansion is a clear and exciting opportunity.

Business highlights:

  • 3-year ave $914,000
  • Iconic brand with over 50 years of trading history
  • Products stocked by both major NZ supermarket groups
  • Purpose-built manufacturing facility with unused capacity
  • Efficient nationwide distribution within 24 hours
  • Proven systems and proprietary production methods
  • Flexible, multi-skilled team with strong leadership
  • Room for export growth and product diversification
  • Strong supplier relationships with 30+ years of history
  • Low competition in a niche market with high barriers to entry.

 

The current owners—two full-time working directors—are actively involved in the day-to-day operations, from customer liaison and financial management to overseeing stock and logistics. Their leadership has created a stable, well-structured business with a seasoned team capable of running operations smoothly. For a new owner, this offers the flexibility to step in hands-on or gradually adjust the structure to suit.With consistent revenue, a respected brand, and room to grow by exploring new markets, product innovation, or increased domestic volume, this opportunity ticks all the boxes. Whether you're an investor seeking scalability or a passionate operator ready to lead a high-potential enterprise, this is a rare and exciting acquisition in the food manufacturing space.

Don’t miss the chance to own a trusted brand with strong foundations and serious upside!
