Turnkey Operations with a Manager per Location
Executive Summary:
Established healthy meal-prep (for grab-and-go) and fast-casual restaurant with two profitable Southern California locations.
Both locations are in high-foot-traffic shopping strip malls.
The hybrid model provides on-demand walk-in fast-casual and dine-in service, plus multi-day meal-prep packages, capturing both spontaneous traffic and predictable weekly planners.
Over 4,000 fully customizable meal combinations across proteins, carbs, and vegetables, prepared fresh daily with no frozen products.
Founded in 2020 with a second location added in 2022. Serves a loyal base of dual-income families, first responders, office professionals, and professional athletes (including NBA and NFL clients). No customer concentration.
Revenue diversified across walk-in (80%), delivery within a 14-mile radius (20%), online ordering, and one $750,000 two-year institutional contract.
A complete, packaged franchise system that was already developed is included in the sale. 15–20 active franchise inquiries received since December 2025, indicating additional revenue for the savvy entrepreneur.
Operational Strengths:
200-page training manual with documented SOPs, recipes, and procedures
Toast POS integrated with online ordering, scheduling, and payroll
Proprietary in-house sauces and spice blends
Near-zero food waste despite fresh-daily preparation
Owner operates in a management role (~12 hrs/week), not performing field labor
Two store managers run day-to-day operations independently
All FF&E owned outright, no equipment leases
Growth Opportunities:
Convert the 15–20 unworked franchise inquiries already in the pipeline
Expand institutional contracts (corporate offices, athletic schools, college campuses, micro-markets)
Add paid digital marketing — current marketing is largely organic and word-of-mouth
Highlights:
Franchise-ready with complete FDD and infrastructure
Two profitable corporate units + brand IP included
Fully customizable, fresh-daily product offering
Semi-absentee, manager-run operations
SBA financing available

- Facilities & Assets
- This business was founded in 2020 as a retail-style meal prep concept focused on making clean eating simple, flexible, and genuinely enjoyable. From the beginning, the idea was to bring together the convenience of grab-and-go with the customization of true meal prep—letting customers build meals around their own macros, goals, and taste preferences.
In its early years, this business built a loyal following among busy professionals and fitness-minded customers who wanted consistent, portion-controlled meals without spending hours cooking each week. As the brand grew, it expanded its menu with protein shakes, breakfasts, wraps, bowls, and health treats, always anchored in transparency around ingredients and nutrition. Today, this business continues to grow as a convenient, health-focused option for people who want restaurant-quality food that fits into a performance-driven lifestyle. - Market Outlook / Competition
- The business operates in the fast-growing "clean eats" and meal-prep segment of fast casual, sitting between traditional QSR (speed/price) and subscription meal-kit brands (nutrition, but ship-only). Demand tailwinds favor performance-oriented, ready-to-eat, transparent-ingredient food.
The competitive set falls into three groups: local/regional meal-prep kitchens (fixed menus, limited customization), national subscription meal-kit and prepared-meal brands (no physical presence, no on-demand option), and better-for-you fast-casual chains (restaurant model, not true meal-prep). The hybrid — in-store fast-casual ordering and multi-day meal-prep packages from the same kitchen — captures both spontaneous traffic and planned weekly spend.
Key differentiators: complete customization (4,000+ combinations), 4–8 oz protein portions vs. competitors' 3–3.5 oz, fresh-never-frozen preparation, and proprietary low-sugar/low-sodium sauces and spice blends. - Opportunities for Growth
- Three concrete growth paths are documented and ready for execution: (1) Franchise expansion — 15–20 active inquiries since December are not yet being worked; a buyer with sales process discipline can convert these into FDD signings. (2) Institutional contracts — one location already holds a $750K, two-year institutional contract; the playbook is repeatable for corporate offices, college campuses, airlines, micro-markets, and private athletic schools across California and Arizona. (3) Existing-store marketing — current marketing is largely word-of-mouth + Instagram/Facebook within a 15–20 mile radius. Adding paid social, Google, and store-level local marketing represents the cleanest near-term revenue lever.
