Carlingwood Shopping Centre, Ottawa – Exceptional opportunity to acquire Tappa Hair Salon & Beauty Bar, a well-known and long-operating salon inside Carlingwood Shopping Centre, one of Ottawa’s premier west-end retail destinations at the high-traffic corner of Carling Avenue and Woodroffe Avenue. The salon benefits from strong, consistent mall foot traffic, ample free customer parking, and excellent visibility, positioned directly across from Tim Hortons within the centre’s active service and beauty corridor. Tappa has built a loyal, long-standing clientele over many years of operation, offering a full suite of hair and beauty services including cuts, colouring, foils, and nail services. The space is professionally built out with multiple styling stations, a dedicated spa/treatment area, reception, and retail display for haircare product sales, all finished with a modern, welcoming aesthetic. Currently open seven days a week with extended evening hours (Mon-Sat to 9:00pm, Sunday to 6:00pm), the business runs on an experienced team of stylists and aestheticians, with an existing revenue stream from both service appointments and product sales. This is an ideal opportunity for an owner-operator or investor to step into a fully operational, cash-flowing salon with an established brand name, trained staff, existing lease in a stable, high-traffic mall environment, and significant room to grow through expanded marketing, added chairs, or extended service offerings. Financials, lease terms, chattels list, and staff details available upon signing of a non-disclosure agreement. Don’t miss this chance to own a recognized, profitable beauty business in one of Ottawa’s busiest west-end shopping centres.
