Country Wiwo Investment- Retail Business Inc Freehold

A cherished retail institution with a rich 124-year history in Central Western Queensland, announces a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for aspiring entrepreneurs. The iconic establishment, deeply woven into the fabric of Longreach's community, is seeking new custodians to continue its legacy of service and innovation.

Barkers Longreach isn't just a business; it's a testament to resilience, adaptability, and community spirit. Through 124 years of operation, the business has weathered the storms of droughts, floods, and economic fluctuations, emerging as a pillar of strength and reliability in the heart of Longreach.

The sale of Barkers Longreach comes with a remarkable offer - the goodwill of the business is being generously passed on to the next owners. Prospective buyers will pay only for the assets and the freehold property, presenting a unique investment opportunity. This includes a managed, profitable business alongside the security of owning a prime piece of main street property in an iconic country town.

"More than just a business, Barkers Longreach is a part of our family's history," says Rob the current owner. "We've experienced the joy of serving this community for decades, and now we're excited to pass on this wonderful opportunity to another family who can continue the legacy."

With a dedicated team of staff and a versatile business model that has evolved over time, Barkers Longreach is poised for continued success. From news, stationery, and Lotto to homewares, gifts, and souvenirs, the store caters to the diverse needs of both locals and tourists. Notably, Barkers Longreach is renowned as a premier LEGO destination in regional Queensland, boasting one of the most extensive LEGO stock lists and annually hosting a highly anticipated LEGO competition.

"This isn't just a business; it's a local institution," adds Leanne "We've witnessed the profound impact Barkers Longreach has had on this community, with pride."

The timing of this opportunity couldn't be more auspicious. With strong tourist numbers and a resurgence in domestic tourism, Barkers Longreach is primed to capitalize on the growing interest in outback Australia. Local tourism bookings for 2024 are solid, reflecting the enduring appeal and resilience of the market.

Couples retirement plans have created this rare opportunity.
