Operating less than 40 hours per week, the business delivers consistent cash flow with streamlined, documented operations.

All tenant-owned equipment conveys with the sale. Systems, menus, vendor relationships, and procedures are documented and transferable. Staff is in place, making this a turnkey opportunity well suited for an engaged owner-operator seeking immediate income from an established operation.
Seller is transitioning into retirement. Serious, qualified inquiries are encouraged.
