Carmella’s Cafe and Dessert Bar will open its second location in Downtown Greenville
Colliers’ Lance Byars, MRED and Scott Burgess, MBA represented Carmella’s Café and Dessert Bar in leasing a ±2,395-square-foot retail space at the recently completed Camperdown development.
“Greenville is a vibrant, growing town and is an ideal location to open our second location,” said Carmella’s owner, Brian Solari. “We are excited to be a part of the Camperdown development and serve customers in this beautiful Falls Park venue.”
Carmella’s is an Italian café and dessert bar specializing in gourmet gelato and sorbetto, cakes and pastries, pizza and sandwiches, and a full bar. The space will have a large covered outdoor patio overlooking Falls Park and the Liberty Bridge.
“I am thrilled about Carmella’s expansion to Greenville,” said Byars, Senior Brokerage Associate with Colliers | South Carolina. “Concepts from cities across the country are looking at Greenville as an exciting next step in their business plans. Despite the challenges presented by COVID-19 and supply chain issues, the Greenville and Spartanburg markets have continued to attract local and national concepts to the region.”
As part of the Retail Services Team, Byars and Burgess specialize in sales and leasing transactions for retail properties in the Upstate of South Carolina.
