Not an easy post for us to share…
After a fantastic few years Sarah and Steph have made the difficult decision to put Sweet Gene’s in Baslow up for sale. It is a leasehold.
This little shop has meant a lot to us - from getting to know so many of you, to building something we’re really proud of in such a special spot near Chatsworth, with loyal support from both locals and visitors.
However, with our other commitments continuing to grow, we know we can’t give the business the time and energy it truly deserves going forward.
During our time here, we’ve increased turnover by around 25%, created a strong flow of party sweet cone orders through word of mouth, and begun building commercial relationships (including the Hilton Hotel).
Sweet Genes is fully set up and ready for its next chapter - offering sweets, local products, ice cream, coffee, and light food, with plenty of room to grow. We’ve never done any formal advertising, so there’s still huge potential to build on what’s already here.
We’d genuinely love to see someone take it on who’s excited to put their own stamp on it and continue its story.
We’re not listing a price publicly but are happy to share more details with serious enquiries.
If this could be for you, or someone you know, please feel free to drop us a message.
