Popular and Profitable Pizzeria

One of New Zealand’s Great Italian Pizza Restaurants is for Sale

For the first time since 2011, an incredible opportunity presents itself to own Ristorante Pizzeria Paradiso, a highly profitable and well-established Italian restaurant in the heart of Te Anau, Fiordland.

This thriving business is renowned for its authentic Italian experience, and the sale offers the chance to purchase either the leasehold business or the business along with the prime real estate it operates from.

Key Highlights:

• Highly profitable business with an excellent reputation
• Long-term lease available (if the purchaser does not wish to buy the land and buildings)
• Currently operates just 5 nights per week – major potential for expansion
• New Italian Wood Fired Pizza Oven arriving soon to enhance efficiency and profitability
• Large courtyard with all-day sun, perfect for expanded service options (coffee and ice cream carts, lunch, and all-day dining)
• Prime location in a key tourist destination – high foot traffic and a loyal local clientele
• Ideal for a family business, with potential for breakfast, lunch, and dinner service 7 days a week

Passion, Enthusiasm & Attention to Detail – Since 2011

Paradiso is more than a restaurant; it is an experience. Passionate about quality, authenticity, and sustainability, this business has built a strong following for its commitment to using organic and locally sourced ingredients where possible.

A Unique Dining Atmosphere

The genuine Italian Wood Fired Pizza Oven is the heart of the restaurant, creating an engaging atmosphere where guests can watch the chefs craft traditional Italian pizzas. Combined with multicultural chefs, local staff, and a commitment to excellence, Paradiso has become an institution in Fiordland dining.

Finn and Sarah, passionate about Fiordland and hospitality, have nurtured Paradiso since 2011. Living on the outskirts of Te Anau, they draw inspiration from the stunning landscapes of Lake Te Anau, the Murchison Mountains, and Fiordland National Park. The family-friendly nature of the restaurant ensures a welcoming, warm experience for all guests.

Limitless Potential

The next owners of Paradiso will have countless opportunities to expand and enhance the business. Whether continuing its current successful model or introducing breakfast, lunch, and courtyard coffee/ice cream service, this restaurant is ready to take on new heights under passionate new ownership.

Seize this Rare Opportunity

Seldom does such a great business come to market, especially one that offers a combination of strong profitability, exceptional location, and expansion potential.
