Foodies flock to this Deli of Culinary Delights

Belgium Street, even the address sounds European. It's the perfect location for Waiheke Specialty Food, positioned to take advantage of the buzz of activity that is Ostend's main road.

This street is jam-packed on Saturdays with the wildly popular Waiheke Ostend market directly opposite. Foodies looking for Mediterranean deli delights make straight for Waiheke Specialty Food.

Customers discover mouth-watering gourmet cheeses and cured meats from France, Spain, Italy, and the Mediterranean. Local oysters, fresh fish and hard-to-find culinary delights also attract them. So does the select range of Italian and French wine, as well as craft beer.

Offering home-cooked ready meals, gift hampers, flowers, delicious cakes and catering platters, online shop, and popular cafe on site, contribute to the success of the foodie phenomenon that is Waiheke Specialty Food.

The current owners created this experience by completely refurbishing the premises when they opened in 2021, and planning everything meticulously. Shelving and counters were custom-made on the island. A lighting and sound system was installed, and furnishings that create its unique ambience. They even commissioned a purpose-built, fully equipped, professional kitchen truck that operates at the rear of the building. The obvious potential here is to further develop.

Then, there's the popular cafe, which frankly runs itself, thanks to the experienced couple who sub-lease it.

The owners are offering an excellent opportunity to acquire this business just as tourists are returning to Waiheke in droves. Waiheke Specialty Food is so well set up that the new owner will find the transition seamless.

Excellent existing relationships with wholesalers and tour operators will be passed on. The foundation of this business has been laid for you to reap the rewards.
