A distinctive investment opportunity combining an operational boutique café and events venue with a developed project for a small boutique cosmetics laboratory and branded retail shop, all located within the same premises in Sunny Beach, Bulgaria.

The concept is designed as an integrated destination bringing together hospitality, natural cosmetics, retail, wellness, creative events and visitor experiences. It offers several complementary revenue streams and the potential to attract tourists, local residents, hotels, tour operators and corporate clients.

Cafe Neroli is the established and operational part of the business. It is a distinctive café, brunch and events venue featuring a Renaissance-inspired interior filled with paintings and a colourful Sicilian-style garden. The café offers Italian-inspired food, freshly prepared brunch, pizza, panini, signature desserts and beverages. It also hosts private celebrations, live entertainment, aromatherapy and perfume workshops, and other creative events.

The café occupies approximately 100 sq m of indoor space and is complemented by a landscaped garden of approximately 100–120 sq m. A separate outdoor takeaway bar can operate independently from the main café and provides additional potential for pizza, panini, salads, desserts, beverages and walk-in sales.

The second part of the premises is allocated to the development of a small boutique cosmetics laboratory and branded retail shop. A professional technological project and layout have already been prepared for the proposed production facility.

The planned activities include the packaging of sourced essential oils and floral waters, together with the future production of creams, lotions and soaps. An oil-based perfume line and other natural cosmetic products may be developed at a later stage. The planned branded shop will provide a direct retail channel for the products manufactured or packaged on site.

The laboratory and shop are currently at the project development stage and are not yet operational. The purchaser will need to complete the required fit-out, acquire the necessary production equipment and complete all applicable regulatory, product safety and compliance procedures before commencing production and sales.

The wider concept creates strong potential for a distinctive visitor experience. Organised groups and individual visitors could attend suitable product demonstrations and creative workshops, learn about natural ingredients and cosmetic preparation, purchase products from the branded shop and complete their visit with herbal tea, brunch or desserts in the café and garden.

Further development opportunities include aromatherapy and perfume workshops, private-label cosmetics, corporate and hotel gifts, online sales, product launches, wellness events, tourist packages and partnerships with hotels, tour operators and local businesses.

The substantial work required to create Neroli’s identity, interior, menus, supplier network, website, social media presence, event formats and market recognition has already been completed. The business remains at an early growth stage and offers significant potential for an experienced investor or operator to develop the hospitality and cosmetics activities as one integrated commercial concept.

The proposed transaction is the sale of a 90% controlling equity interest in the company for EUR 68,000. The purchaser will receive operational and managerial control of the business. The current owner will retain a 10% passive equity interest without any continuing employment, management, operational or future financing obligations following an agreed initial handover period.

The transaction includes the operational Neroli business, seller-owned equipment and furnishings included in the final inventory, the established brand concept and visual identity, menus, recipes, website, social media presence, supplier relationships, event formats, operational know-how, and the available technological project and documentation for the planned cosmetics laboratory and retail shop.

The business operates from leased premises under favourable conditions. Any continuation, assignment or restructuring of the lease will be subject to agreement with the property owners. The building and land are not included in the transaction.

The premises are easily accessible by car, with convenient parking available nearby. The location allows the business to serve both seasonal visitors and year-round residents from Sunny Beach, Nessebar, Sveti Vlas and the surrounding area. The outdoor takeaway bar faces a busy pedestrian pavement and offers strong potential for direct walk-in sales.

Premises Details:

The premises are arranged into two complementary business areas.

The operational boutique café, Neroli, occupies approximately 100 sq m of indoor space and is complemented by a landscaped garden of approximately 100–120 sq m. The premises include customer seating, a bar and service area, food and pizza preparation facilities, and storage and utility areas. A separate outdoor takeaway bar can operate independently from the main café.

The second area is intended for the development of a small boutique cosmetics laboratory and branded retail shop. A professional technological project has been prepared, with designated areas for receiving and storing raw materials, preparation and production, filling and packaging, finished-product storage, staff and utility facilities, and a retail section.

The laboratory and shop are not yet operational and require completion works, production equipment and compliance with the applicable regulatory requirements.

As part of the transaction, the purchaser will receive the complete developed business project, the planned product portfolio, available formulas and product concepts, together with contacts for suppliers of raw materials, packaging, labels and other necessary materials. Contacts with specialists and organisations that can assist with further certification, product safety assessments and the required compliance procedures will also be provided.

The premises are leased. The building and land are not included in the transaction.

Size in square feet:

Planning Consent:

The premises are divided into two separate functional areas. Neroli operates in one area as an established food and beverage business.

A professional technological and technical project has been prepared for the second area, which is intended for the development of a small cosmetics production facility and branded retail shop. The laboratory is not yet operational and is not being presented as a completed or fully authorised production facility.

The purchaser should conduct their own legal and technical due diligence and complete all applicable procedures, including any required change of use, registrations, permits and other requirements for commencing the production and sale of cosmetic products.

As part of the transaction, the available technological project and relevant premises documentation will be provided, together with the complete business plan for developing the boutique cosmetics laboratory and branded retail shop. The business plan includes the proposed product portfolio, available formulas and product concepts, contacts for suppliers of raw materials, production materials, equipment, packaging and labels, as well as contacts with specialists and organisations that can assist with further certification, product safety assessments and the required compliance procedures.

The documentation can be made available to qualified purchasers during the due diligence process.

Business Operation

Management type:
This business is owner operated.
Expansion Potential:

The principal growth opportunity is the completion and equipping of the small boutique cosmetics laboratory and the opening of the branded retail shop. Planned activities include the packaging of sourced essential oils and floral waters, together with the future production of creams, lotions and soaps. Oil-based perfumes and other natural cosmetic products may be added at a later stage.

Growth opportunities include developing a proprietary product line, manufacturing for third-party brands, establishing a branded international online store, subscription and gift sets, and corporate gifts.

There is particularly strong potential to develop a hotel amenities range in small individual packages, including shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, soap, body lotion and other products routinely supplied by hotels to their guests. The location in one of Bulgaria’s most developed tourism regions creates opportunities for direct partnerships and recurring supply arrangements with hotels, aparthotels, spa centres and other accommodation providers.

The brand could be developed not only within Bulgaria but also through international e-commerce, reaching consumers and commercial partners in other European countries and wider international markets. This would enable the cosmetics business to grow beyond the limitations of the local tourism season.

The integrated concept also allows for product demonstrations, aromatherapy workshops, perfume and natural cosmetics creation sessions, new product launches, wellness events and specialised visitor programmes. Guests could combine these experiences with purchases from the branded shop and a visit to the café and garden.

Further growth for Neroli could be achieved through private and corporate events, catering, delivery services, sales through the outdoor takeaway bar, partnerships with hotels and accommodation providers, and a year-round programme of events. The two business activities can attract customers to each other and create several complementary revenue streams.

Competition / Market:

Sunny Beach and the wider Nessebar area form a highly developed tourism market with a large number of hotels, restaurants, retail outlets and visitor services. Although there is active competition within the individual hospitality, cosmetics and retail sectors, there is no known comparable concept in the immediate area combining a small cosmetics production facility, a proprietary product line, a branded retail shop, a boutique café and visitor experiences in one location.

Neroli also has no direct local equivalent offering the same combination of Italian-inspired food, brunch, signature desserts, a distinctive artistic interior, a colourful Sicilian-style garden, live entertainment, creative workshops and private events.

A major competitive advantage is the opportunity to connect the future cosmetics activity directly with an established and recognisable food, events and visitor destination. Products can be presented, demonstrated and sold within the business’s own environment, while visitors receive an integrated experience that conventional cosmetics shops and traditional cafés do not provide.

Reasons for selling:

The owner is transitioning into a different business sector and relocating her residence to another country. This decision reflects a change in professional direction and personal circumstances.

Trading hours:

The stated trading hours apply to the operational Neroli café. During the summer season, the café is open daily from 08:30 to 22:00. During the winter season, it is open daily from 09:00 to 19:00, with special or extended hours for pre-arranged events and private functions. The cosmetics laboratory and branded retail shop are not yet operational and therefore do not currently have established trading hours.

Other Information

Support & training:

The seller will provide an initially agreed handover period to introduce the purchaser to Neroli’s operations. This will cover the menu and recipes, supplier relationships, daily operating procedures, event formats, brand standards, website and social media management.

For the cosmetics division, the seller will transfer the technological project, complete business plan, proposed product portfolio, available formulas and product concepts, together with the available contacts for suppliers of raw materials, production materials, equipment, packaging and labels. Contacts with specialists and organisations that can assist with further certification, product safety assessments and compliance procedures will also be provided.

Following completion of the agreed handover period, the seller will have no continuing obligations relating to employment, training, management, operational involvement or future financing of the business.
