Established Butcher Shop w/ RE — $1.07M Rev, $183K CF - STL Area
Business Description
This long-established, full-service butcher shop is known for old-fashioned customer service, high-quality meats and competitive prices. The business generates over $1M in annual revenue and benefits from strong seasonal cash flow. Equipment, fixtures and inventory are included in the sale, and seller financing may be available for qualified buyers.
All butchering and smokehouse production are performed in-house. Product offerings include fresh-cut beef, pork and chicken; smoked meats; homemade sausages; deli meats and cheeses; freezer orders (quarters, halves and sides); and a rotating selection of exotic meats including elk, bison, wild boar, ostrich, alligator and rabbit. The shop also carries limited grocery items, private-label spices and sauces, frozen sides and dog treats.
Deer and game processing is a cornerstone of the operation each fall. The business processes approximately 500–1,000 deer per season and attracts customers from hours away during peak hunting season when other processors are at capacity.
The company maintains stable wholesale and institutional accounts with bars, restaurants, VFWs, American Legions, union halls, clubs and food pantries, providing reliable recurring revenue.
This opportunity would be well suited for an owner-operator, butcher, chef or food entrepreneur seeking to step into a profitable community staple, or for an existing specialty food retailer, grocery store, restaurant group or meat distributor looking to expand into retail meat sales, processing and specialty products with an established brand and loyal customer base.
