Wholefoods & Café Lifestyle Opportunity in the Heart of Bendigo

Cafe/Coffee Shop | Business for Sale | Bendigo

If you're seeking more than just a business, if you're craving a purpose-driven lifestyle, community connection, and the chance to grow something meaningful, this rare Bendigo opportunity may be exactly what you're looking for.

Bendigo Wholefoods & Wholefoods Kitchen Café, including an established nursery space, is a much-loved local business with a loyal following and a strong foundation ready for a fresh chapter after 18 years under current ownership. This business would thrive under hands-on ownership, with someone ready to bring energy, ideas, and purpose to a well-known, values-aligned brand.

Why this business could be the perfect fit:

  • Lifestyle Buyers & Tree-Changers – Escape the city and immerse yourself in a values-led lifestyle in one of regional Victoria's most vibrant communities. Run a business that aligns with your passion for food, health, and sustainability.
  • Chefs or Café Owners Seeking Expansion – The café is ready for a fresh concept or revitalisation, with existing fit-out, indoor/outdoor dining, and access to seasonal produce. Ideal as-is, as a second location, or a creative blank canvas.
  • Experienced Hospitality or Retail Operators – Use your experience to unlock the business's full potential. With strong branding and community loyalty in place, there's opportunity to reshape operations and grow.
  • Retail Collectives or Co-operatives – With a passionate customer base and deep local roots, this space lends itself to a community-led model. Keep it local. Keep it sustainable.

    • This is not a passive investment in its current form; it's a chance to roll up your sleeves and bring fresh thinking to a business that matters to many, and an opportunity to rebuild a strong ROI through savvy investments and work effort.

    Key Highlights:

  • Iconic Bendigo brand with long-standing community support across 30 years of operation
  • Three revenue streams: wholefoods retail, café, and nursery with opportunities to grow new categories
  • General liquor licence for up to 200 patrons - ideal for expanding café hours or hosting functions and events
  • Prime CBD location with ample parking and foot traffic
  • Large 550m² site with a long-term lease secured until 2045
  • Loyal staff and established customer base
  • Endless potential for revitalisation and growth

    • In its current form, or with the added value you bring, the site offers significant potential for new business, increased sales, and improved performance. With the right ownership, solid strategy, and food industry expertise, there are numerous ways to optimise and expand the business.

    If you're ready to take the reins of a business with heart, heritage and opportunity - this could be your next chapter.
