Rare opportunity to acquire a well-established Capital Region catering business with more than 23 years of operating history.
This is a true turnkey opportunity for an experienced chef, hospitality professional, existing food-service operator, or entrepreneur looking to own an established business rather than build one from the ground up.
The company has developed a strong reputation throughout the Capital Region and serves corporate events, social gatherings, weddings and private events. Approximately 85% of the business comes from repeat corporate and social-gathering customers, providing a valuable foundation of long-standing relationships for the next owner.
The operation includes a fully equipped, full-size commercial catering kitchen with dedicated office space, substantial storage, walk-in coolers and freezers, commercial cooking and food-preparation equipment, and stainless-steel work areas. Also included are three vehicles, a fully equipped 16-foot mobile catering kitchen, catering equipment, smallwares, service ware, operating systems, recipes and goodwill.
One of the most important advantages of this opportunity is the transition. The current owner is committed to working with the right buyer to provide hands-on training and help transition important customer and vendor relationships. The goal is to provide continuity and position the new owner for success.
There are also opportunities for additional growth through expanded corporate accounts, weddings and private events, relationships with additional venues and event planners, delivery and drop-off catering, institutional accounts, and increased digital marketing.
Asking Price: $585,000
Seller financing is available for a qualified buyer. Terms and structure will depend on buyer qualifications and the overall offer.
This is a confidential sale. Additional financial information, detailed operating information and supporting documentation will be provided to qualified prospective buyers following an initial conversation and appropriate confidentiality arrangements.
Serious inquiries only.

- Market Outlook / Competition
- Healthy Cafe operates in the established Capital Region catering market, serving corporate clients, social gatherings, private events and weddings. The business has built a strong reputation over more than 20 years, with approximately 85% of business coming from repeat corporate and social customers. Its long operating history, established customer relationships, fully equipped commercial kitchen, vehicles and mobile catering kitchen provide meaningful advantages over a new catering startup. Competition exists throughout the region, but the company’s reputation, repeat business and operating infrastructure provide a strong foundation for a new owner.
- Opportunities for Growth
- Significant growth opportunities exist for an owner who wants to actively develop the business. Opportunities include expanding corporate accounts, increasing wedding and private-event business, developing relationships with additional venues and event planners, and increasing digital and social media marketing. A new owner could also expand delivery and drop-off catering, pursue additional institutional and business accounts, and increase utilization of the existing commercial kitchen, vehicles and mobile kitchen. The established customer base and infrastructure allow a buyer to focus on growth rather than building a catering operation from scratch.
