EBITDA multiples for coffee shops

by a professional

2 years ago

I've got a client putting together a valuation for 4 coffee shops (with light food) all under the same brand within a major metro area. Adj EBITDA is approximately $1.2MM and has been consistently growing over the past several years. Does anyone have an understanding of a multiple range for something like this?

Are you also buying the real estate? If so, you'd be able to amortize over a longer period and could justify a higher EV / EBITDA+Rent multiple.

Hi I realize this is an older post but I have a colleague with a coffee shop opportunity in hand. Is anyone in this thread able to connect regarding their process of acquiring a coffee shop or similar? Curious about some of the diligence process and timing of engaging service providers.
