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.

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 established BBQ food truck specializes in fresh, made-to-order barbecue and comfort food, serving the late-night crowd near this state University. Known for its flavorful offerings and signature “Yum Yum” sauce, the business has built a loyal following among college students seeking quality food during hours when few other options are available. The food truck operates seasonally, approximately 40 days per year, creating a strong sense of anticipation and urgency each time it opens. This limited schedule presents a significant growth opportunity for a new owner to expand operations and capitalize on consistent demand. The surrounding area offers minimal late-night food competition, especially during the academic year when the student population is most active. In addition to extended service days, the business is well-positioned to add catering services to events, student organizations, and local businesses. There are also promising opportunities to establish a presence at local fairs, festivals, and community gatherings throughout the region. With its recognizable branding, fully equipped trailer, and proven popularity, this food truck is ready for new ownership to take it to the next level. This is a turn-key operation with scalable potential and a strong market fit for late-night, mobile dining.

5-Year #1 in CA – Estab. 2013 -Underperforming Absentee =Margin Opp Buyer Process : NDA + basic proof of funds required prior to release of name, address, and financials. Landlord and franchisor approvals will require full financial qualification. This is not a startup—it’s a proven, top-performing Texas-style BBQ franchise in Eastvale, CA that has slipped under absentee ownership and is now priced to reflect that opportunity. ±1,980 SF location. Operating under current ownership for 6 years, with brand presence at this site since 2013. Starting during the Covid pandemic - five consecutive years, this was the highest-grossing franchised location for the brand in California. The business is currently absentee-run with two full-time co-managers covering 70–80 hours/week ($22/hr) and five part-time staff ($20/hr). Operations are stable, but the lack of hands-on ownership over the past couple of years has capped performance—this is where the opportunity is. A working owner or family-run operation can realistically tighten labor, increase oversight, and push this back toward its prior peak performance. Why This Deal Makes Sense: Proven #1 revenue unit in California (5 years straight) Established franchise location since 2013 Fully built-out ±1,980 SF—no heavy lift required Stable team in place with management coverage Clear operational inefficiencies = immediate margin upside Clean handoff for operator, family, or multi-unit buyer Important Notes: Price excludes franchisor transfer fee, required HQ training, and lease assignment costs Buyer must qualify with franchisor and landlord Potential E-2 visa opportunity (buyer to verify with counsel) Ideal Buyer: This is built for someone who will actually show up—owner-operator, family-run setup, or franchisee expanding footprint. Passive investors will leave money on the table here. Priced to reflect current absentee performance—not historical peak. Seller is realistic and prepared to transact with a qualified buyer, but not interested in renegotiation after diligence. If you’ve been waiting for a real operator play—not a dressed-up listing—this is it. The upside is obvious, but it won’t sit. Ad#:2486234

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.
