Business for sale in Manilva, Málaga

Catch of the day: A ready-to-run fish & chips business in Manilva, Costa del Sol

Ref: 3386

Manilva in the Costa del Sol offers something increasingly rare on the Costa del Sol: authentic Audalusian coastal life without sacrificing international comfort and commercial opportunity. Unlike more saturated resorts, this area has retained a Spanish should - local markets, family-run cafés, beach promenades filled with daily life - while quietly becoming home to a growing international community.

Blessed with long open beaches and a flat terrain, it offers a relaxed pace of life yet still feels active and social. Strategically located close to Estepona and Sotogrande, it has easy access to Gibraltar and within an hour, you can reach Málaga airport. Manilva benefits from a dual economy: permanent local residents who support businesses throughout the year as well as tourists and second-home owners who boost turnover during peak seasons.

This fish & chips eatery has been in existence for more than 2 decades, serving the same popular menu focused on its signature dish in the heart of a popular residential district. It has built a loyal customer base through word-of-mouth over the years and benefits from regular foot traffic, a strong online reputation and a prime location close to beachfront promenade.

It can seat 20 at the terrace plus 20 to 25 inside, measuring 100m2 internally with a servicing counter and small kitchen. Run by a husband-and-wife team, it is sometimes supplemented by an additional staff during peak season. The current owner took over the business 2 years ago and have kept to its winning formula in terms of menu and atmosphere as a beloved cosy family-run eatery. The family is looking for a less hectic lifestyle to spend more time with their young child.

There is a 5-year renewable lease which is currently subject to a monthly rental of 1122€ + iva, which includes water and terrace tax.

Please note that one month’s rent, 2 months rent as deposit and one months rent as agency fee will be required for leasehold option.
