About the Business
- Years in Operation
- 1
- Employees
- 4 (3 Full-time, 1 Part-time)
- Facilities & Assets
- Turnkey kabob/halal restaurant located in a busy Arlington shopping mall. Fully built-out with commercial kitchen, hood system, grill, refrigeration, prep area, POS system, and front counter. All existing furniture, fixtures, and equipment are included in the sale, making it easy for a new owner to take over and operate.
- Market Outlook / Competition
- Located in a high foot-traffic mall with strong demand for quick-service and halal/Mediterranean food. This is the only dedicated halal restaurant in the immediate area, giving it a unique niche. Current owner is mostly absentee, so the business is not fully optimized, leaving room for an active operator to improve performance.
- Opportunities for Growth
- Significant upside for a hands-on owner. Opportunities include: extending hours, adding online ordering and delivery platforms, introducing catering, refreshing the menu, and consistent marketing/social media. Current owner has other restaurants and is retiring, so the store has been under-managed and can perform better with focus.
