Established Minnesota craft distillery and hospitality business offered as a turnkey opportunity for an owner operator or beverage entrepreneur. The business combines spirits production, wholesale distribution, a full cocktail room, commercial kitchen and private event operation under one established brand.
The sale includes substantial production and hospitality infrastructure already in place. Equipment includes a complete distilling system, fermentation and storage tanks, mash equipment, glycol and process systems, bottling and canning equipment, laboratory equipment, barrel handling and warehouse equipment, commercial kitchen equipment, refrigeration, bar systems, furniture, POS and event infrastructure.
This is not a startup shell. A buyer is acquiring more than a decade of operating history, established recipes and products, production capability, vendor and wholesale relationships, operating systems, customer awareness and a functioning hospitality business. The operation has historically generated more than $2 million in annual sales, demonstrating significantly greater capacity than current utilization.
Multiple revenue channels provide opportunities for a hands-on buyer to grow the business through expanded wholesale distribution, private events, packaged spirits, canned cocktails, contract production, increased production utilization and stronger marketing.
The current owner is ready for a new chapter after a decade of the industry and is seeking a qualified buyer who can build on the infrastructure already created. A reasonable transition and training period will be provided. Limited seller financing may be considered for a well-qualified buyer with a substantial down payment.
Additional financial information, detailed equipment lists, inventory information and business identity will be provided to qualified buyers following confidentiality procedures.
