Read the lease before anything else
Remaining term, renewal options, rent escalations, and assignment rights can make or break a retail deal. A great store with a weak or non-transferable lease is a problem you inherit.

$440K Net | High-Volume Gas Station & Large C-Store | ARCO/AMPM
Solano County, California, United States
Solano County, CA, US
$440,000 NET PROFIT HIGH-VOLUME GAS STATION & LARGE C-STORE Major ARCO/ampm Upgrade Opportunity Exceptional opportunity for an experienced gas station and convenience-store operator. This established station already generates strong gasoline volume and profitability, but the real opportunity is its large, underutilized convenience store and significant potential to increase fuel volume. ● Approximately 85,000 gallons of gasoline per month ● Reported gasoline margin of over $0.80 per gallon ● Current C-store sales of approximately $25,000 per month ● Approximately 35% C-store markup ● Reported net profit: approximately $440,000 ● Large C-store with substantial room for improvement and expansion According to the owner, ARCO/ampm is prepared to invest more than $1.2 MILLION to upgrade and remodel the station if the new owner agrees to convert the location to an ARCO/ampm operation. Even more importantly, according to the owner, an ARCO traffic study indicates significant upside potential after renovation and conversion, with the location having the capacity to potentially reach the following: 220,000+ gallons of gasoline per month and $180,000+ in monthly C-store sales Compared with the current approximately 85,000 gallons and $25,000 in store sales, this represents tremendous growth potential for the right operator. The existing C-store is large but needs remodeling. A buyer who properly renovates, merchandises, and operates the store may have an opportunity to dramatically increase inside sales while benefiting from the additional traffic and brand recognition associated with an ARCO/ampm conversion. ASKING PRICE: $1,800,000 REAL ESTATE ALSO AVAILABLE The owner is also willing to consider selling the real property, creating an opportunity for a qualified buyer to potentially acquire both the operating business and the underlying real estate. This is a rare opportunity to acquire an already profitable gas station with substantial existing fuel volume, a large C-store, major expansion potential, and a possible $1.2+ million investment from ARCO/ampm. Serious and financially qualified buyers only. For additional information, contact: Matt Sadati DRE #00704888 or his assistant, Tamana, 510-415-6023

What to know about retail business acquisitions
GW
Cofounder & CEO
Key diligence, valuation, financing, and transition considerations for buyers evaluating retail business acquisitions.
Value the inventory carefully
Establish what inventory is included, how it is valued, and how much is dead or seasonal stock. Inventory is often a large and negotiable part of the price.
Verify sales and margins at the register
Reconcile point-of-sale data against bank deposits and tax returns. Understand gross margin by category and how discounting affects it.
Assess foot traffic and the trade area
Location quality, nearby anchors, and parking drive walk-in revenue. Visit at different times and check that the trade area still supports the business.
Map supplier terms and concentration
Exclusive brands, supplier credit, and minimum order sizes affect both margin and risk. Make sure those relationships transfer to a new owner.
Clarify owner and staff roles
Owner-run stores often lean on the owner relationships and hours. Understand staffing, turnover, and what it costs to operate without the seller.
