A turnkey Mediterranean grocery and specialty-food market that locals seek out — known for its in-house butcher counter and the imported staples the big chains don't carry. Years of word of mouth have built a loyal, repeat following, with no advertising or website behind it. It's a simple business to step into: a single owner with one part-time helper and low fixed costs. Because the included equipment and inventory cover most of the price, a buyer is paying for an established, profitable operation — not goodwill alone. The owner is retiring and will help the next owner get up to speed.

Established in 2011, this authentic Chilean restaurant is a rare, turnkey opportunity in a high-traffic Miami location. With strong, stable annual revenue and a completely debt-free balance sheet, it offers a new owner a fully built-out, operational restaurant ready to run from day one. WHY IT STANDS OUT: • 15 years of continuous operation and proven market acceptance • Consistent, stable revenue with steady year-over-year growth • 100% debt-free with healthy cash reserves • Fully equipped commercial kitchen and dining space — all furniture, fixtures, and equipment paid off • Authentic Chilean cuisine — a distinctive, underserved niche with little direct competition • Loyal, repeat customer base built over more than a decade THE OPPORTUNITY: A buyer acquires a turnkey operation backed by real assets, not just goodwill. The space includes a complete commercial kitchen, refrigeration, bakery equipment, full dining room furniture, and bar/counter setup. Inventory is included. GROWTH POTENTIAL: Significant upside for an energetic operator — expand catering and private events, grow delivery and online ordering, extend hours or add weekend brunch, and strengthen digital marketing. The proven concept is also a strong candidate for a second location. IDEAL BUYER: Well-suited to an owner-operator, restaurateur, or investor seeking an established brand with real assets, steady revenue, and room to grow. Miami's vibrant Latin American community and steady tourism support ongoing demand. The current owner will provide hands-on training and a smooth transition. Full financials available to qualified buyers upon signing a confidentiality agreement. Serious inquiries only. Proof of funds required for full financial disclosure.

Turnkey restaurant and bar opportunity in an established location, fully equipped and ready for an experienced operator to step in and open. The space features a complete commercial kitchen, a fully built-out bar, and a dining area with all furniture and fixtures in place. A substantial package of equipment and FF&E is included in the sale — a fraction of the cost to build out a comparable space from scratch. A transferable lease runs through December 2028, offering stability and a favorable occupancy cost. The business is competitively priced as the owner is exiting. This is an ideal opportunity for a hands-on operator with restaurant experience to acquire a move-in-ready location, bring stronger management and marketing, and build a profitable concept. Serious buyers will be provided with Profit & Loss statements for review.

Profitable, owner-operated bagel bakery and deli on one of Vero Beach's busiest commercial corridors. Bagels are baked fresh on site every morning and built into breakfast and lunch sandwiches around a Boar's Head deli program, serving a loyal mix of local regulars and seasonal winter visitors. The business is profitable with strong margins and has grown in nearly every quarter on record, without discounting or a change of location. Simple, repeatable model run by one working owner: a focused breakfast-and-lunch menu, a short supplier list, and a Clover POS. The majority of sales run through card, giving clean, verifiable revenue for diligence. Occupancy cost is low, which keeps fixed costs light and protects margins. Well regarded locally and featured on area "best bagels" lists. Turnkey operation with clear, largely untapped room to grow. Full financials available to qualified buyers after signing a confidentiality agreement.

This business is a cornerstone of the local community, supported by a loyal following and a dedicated, long-term staff. Because the operational foundation is so well-established, a new owner can enjoy a smooth transition and focus on nurturing existing relationships while exploring natural expansion into catering or delivery services. It is an ideal acquisition for an individual looking for a stable, high-performing asset with a clear and steady path forward

Move-In Ready Step into a fully operational, professionally equipped commercial kitchen and bistro space — no buildout required, no permits to pull. With over $75,000 in food-grade equipment already in place, this is a rare low-barrier entry point into one of California's most food-forward markets. The Space At 1,750 sq. ft., the layout supports both retail front-of-house service and high-volume back-of-house production simultaneously. The kitchen is built for serious output: a three-burner Chinese range, two stock ranges, a four-burner range, deep fryer, full walk-in cooler, three freezers (including a 3-door unit), refrigerated prep table, ice maker, and both a drink and wine fridge. Everything is in place for day-one operations. The Opportunity The current owners used this space for food production and are relocating to a larger facility — the business is available because they've outgrown it, not because of performance issues. That leaves the door open for: - A café or specialty coffee concept (neighboring deli drives consistent daily foot traffic) - A ghost kitchen or delivery-first brand (ideal kitchen infrastructure, parking on-site) - A catering or meal prep operation (high-capacity equipment, flexible layout) - A new restaurant concept with immediate dine-in or to-go capability Location & Lease Positioned next to a high-traffic deli in a desirable Alameda County corridor, the space benefits from built-in customer flow and convenient on-site parking — a genuine competitive advantage in this market. A favorable lease is in place at $5,964/month; lease terms available upon inquiry. The Ask $75,000 — representing the full value of furniture, fixtures, and equipment. Cash offers preferred. Inquire for full details including lease length and to schedule a walk-through.

This Oahu catering service specializes in preparing and delivering daily healthy school lunches from a central commercial kitchen to over 20 public charter and private schools, including preschools. NAIC Code: 722310 – Food Service Contractor Operating since 2016, this highly successful and profitable business has grown consistently every year The company prepares and delivers nutritious, balanced, USDA-compliant meals … healthy meals that kids like and actually eat! They serve only fresh produce and prioritize locally grown fruits and vegetables whenever possible. The business is operated out of a 3,500 sq. ft. leased commercial kitchen. There is a loading dock (flat, no curb), dry storage, cold storage, and frozen storage, with additional dry storage nearby. Within two blocks of the freeway. Monthly rent is $3,200 (all inclusive). Lease ends June 2027, but landlord is open to unlimited extensions. Staff & Operations: In addition to the full-time owner-operator, there are 10 part-time employees. They produce and deliver about 900 lunches daily to 24 schools. (Production will likely increase to at least 1,000 daily lunches starting with the Fall 2026 semester.) The staff works Monday-Friday from 5:30 a.m. to 12 noon, with school holidays and vacation days off. Marketing & Opportunities: The reputation is excellent. Growth has been 100% by word of mouth. Parents of children at public charter and private schools care deeply about food quality and are willing to pay a premium. These schools do not have on-site kitchens and need to work with a caterer. With creative marketing and proactive sales activities, a new owner can readily increase sales beyond the typical annual growth of 20% or more, year over year. The company is one of just a few lunch vendors on Oahu, and private school enrollment continues to grow. In addition, new preschools are starting up due to recent legislative action. Financial Data: 75% of revenue comes from parents paying for lunches in advance for the month or semester; the other 25% comes from schools that pay directly for students’ lunches (billed at end of month, net 30). Sales grow consistently, year-over-year: 2023 – $854,956 2024 – $1,063,460 2025 – $1,276, 137 Net Operating Income (calculated before add-backs for the owner’s salary and other compensation): 2023 – $94,000 2024 – $211,340 2025 – $240,729 Seller’s Discretionary Earnings (“SDE”) for 2024 and 2025 are estimated to be about $420,000 each year. (A detailed analysis can be shared with a serious buyer, subject to verification during due diligence.)

The Transaction: The seller is open to all reasonable offers and terms. The business (not the corporation) is being offered for an initial asking price of $999,000 (subject to increase if certain new business opportunities materialize in the summer of 2026). This includes all assets, tangible and intangible (including but not limited to FF&E, name, website, customer relationships, etc.), except it does not include cash, accounts receivable, or accounts payable*.

Cofounder & CEO
Key diligence, valuation, financing, and transition considerations for buyers evaluating food manufacturing acquisitions.
Determine whether the business owns brands or manufactures for others. A branded maker controls its margins, its shelf relationships, and its marketing risk; a co-packer or private-label manufacturer trades brand risk for customer-concentration risk. These are different valuation problems, and the median earnings near 140,000 mean little until you know which model generates it.
Verify food-safety registration, certifications, and inspection history first. Food manufacturers operate under federal and state food-safety regimes, and many customers require specific third-party certifications. A lapse or recall history is both a liability and a barrier to keeping the customers who depend on the certification.
Get revenue by customer and by channel before trusting the top line. A co-packer with one anchor customer or a brand dependent on a single retailer is fragile; diversified channels are more durable. With a revenue base near 920,000, the concentration profile, not the revenue figure, tells you how risky the earnings are.
Assess production capacity and whether the facility can grow with you. Roughly 18 percent of these businesses own their real estate, and processing equipment is both valuable and specialized. Understand current utilization, the cost to add capacity, and whether the facility is the constraint on growth.
Model the working capital tied up in ingredients, inventory, and shelf life. Food businesses carry perishable inputs, inventory cycles, and sometimes seasonal demand, all of which lock up cash. Understand spoilage, shrink, and the cash conversion cycle, and size the working capital you must fund.
Use the moderate seller-financing norm to bridge transition risk. About 18 percent of these sellers advertise financing, which gives room to structure a note or earnout that keeps the seller engaged through recipe transfer, customer introductions, and certification continuity.
