An established multi-unit sports bar concept in the Knoxville market is seeking a qualified operating partner to take over day-to-day operations for two restaurant locations.
The concept historically generated over $2M in combined annual revenue across two locations in the region.
Both restaurants remain fully equipped and operational but experienced recent performance decline primarily due to absentee ownership and lack of consistent on-site leadership after the owners were unable to relocate to Knoxville.
This opportunity is ideal for an experienced restaurant operator who can restore operational leadership and drive revenue back toward historical levels.
