Moshi Coffee is a well-established café bar occupying a prominent position on the High Street in Cheadle, Staffordshire. The premises have operated as a coffee shop since 2009, some 17 years, with the current ownership in place since 2019. Named after the coffee-growing town of Moshi at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro, the business has built a loyal local following on a compact, easy-to-run menu and coffee sourced exclusively from the region that inspired its name, and now presents an opportunity for an owner-operator to take on a genuinely turnkey trading business.
Sales for the year ended 31 August 2025 were £132,829, with a healthy gross profit margin of approximately 59%. Trading over the three years to August 2025 has been consistent, with sales ranging between £122,299 and £133,686, and the vendor advises that trading in the most recent 12 months remains broadly in line with the accounts. We would expect a full-time working owner to be able to earn in the region of £34,000 a year in profit before tax from running the business day-to-day.
The premises comprise a well-presented ground floor café with a servery and refrigerated display counters, two customer seating areas, a ground floor toilet and a small kitchen/prep area, together with a basement storage cellar and a separate brick outbuilding to the rear used for additional storage. All trade equipment is fully owned by the business.
The business is currently run day-to-day by a family member who does not intend to continue after the sale, presenting a new owner-operator with the opportunity to step directly into that role. The remaining team are settled and have indicated they wish to stay on. With rent of only £730 per calendar month (inclusive of VAT) and the landlord amenable in principle to granting a new agreement to an incoming purchaser, this represents an accessible entry point into café ownership on favourable occupational terms.
