About this Business for sale in Auckland Surrounds

20+ Years of Success | Prime Retail Location | Ready for New Ownership

After over two decades of success, the owners of Retreat– one of New Zealand's most trusted candle and lifestyle brands – are preparing to retire. 

Every day, they still enjoy their morning coffee surrounded by the scent of premium candles, under elegant chandeliers, in a warm and beautifully styled 96 sqm store (which includes a tidy 20 sqm storage space).

Tucked away at the back, the storage area keeps stock ready to restock the shelves for their loyal customer base – including a few well-known faces who've been coming here for years to pick up their favourite scent.

Now, they're ready to pass this well-loved business on to someone new – someone who will appreciate its charm, history, and potential.

So, what makes Retreat shine?

  • Beautifully Established Brand: Known for premium candles and curated lifestyle products from New Zealand, Australia, and Europe, RETREAT holds a reputation for quality, strong margins, and timeless appeal.
  • Prime Auckland Location + Below-Market Rent: The current owner also owns the premises and is offering generous lease terms to support the next owner.
  • Loyal Client Base: Loved by both retail and corporate customers – ideal for events, gifts, hospitality and more.
  • Lifestyle-Friendly Operation: Offers great flexibility or room to scale.
  • E-Commerce Ready: A fully functional online store is already set up and ready to grow.
  • Supportive Handover: The owners are committed to a smooth transition and are happy to help the right buyer settle in confidently.

 

Who is this for?

  • You have great taste.
  • You've got a bit of capital and a creative eye.
  • You want a work-life balance – without giving up on ambition.
  • You understand branding, digital marketing, and customer experience.
  • You see potential in growing both corporate and retail sales.

 

And most importantly, you can build strong, genuine relationships – with neighbouring businesses, local students, cafe regulars, and loyal customers who've been with Retreat for years.

Step into a lifestyle business as beautiful as your style.

You'll fall in love with Retreat – and of course, you're welcome to bring your own style to it too.
