Description
This is an opportunity to acquire an established, full-day childcare centre in East Singapore with a 10+ year operating history, an independent curriculum brand, and a business that is already running at close to full enrolment.
The centre sits in a dense residential catchment of landed housing, condominiums and a new BTO project nearby, with good frontage along a main road and easy access near transport hubs. The business is already operational, fully fitted, and supported by an experienced team, with its own character-education and curriculum that transfers to the incoming buyer. The business can be sold with or without the brand and curriculum.
The owner has decided to take a step back to spend more time with family.

This is a highly profitable and well run centre running at ~90% occupancy, with a great location and a very low rental rate. Everyone knows rental is the biggest killer for Singapore businesses, and this business has thrived for many years due to their low cost base, great location and stellar reviews amongst parents in the community.
For an existing childcare operator, this may work well as a bolt-on acquisition expanding the footprint into East Singapore.
For a hands-on owner-operator, the opportunity is in taking over an established, well-run centre that is already close to full enrolment, with room to grow into the remaining licensed capacity and to build on a curriculum and brand that can be retained or adapted.
