Business Description
Great opportunity to own your own business!
Established two-unit franchise portfolio in Irvine and Huntington Beach, California. Combined trailing revenue of $1.2M and two-year average Adjusted SDE of $253,823 with $202K Adjusted EBITDA on an absentee basis.



A single full-time General Manager runs both stores and has committed to staying post-close — making this one of the rare semi-absentee opportunities at this price point where a passive investor genuinely does not need to work in the business. Manager compensation is fully reflected in operating expenses, so no replacement cost to the buyer.



Both units operate at $622K average unit volume, approximately 24% above the franchise's national AUV per current FDD. Direct landlord leases at competitive rates with five-year options extending control through 2032–2033. Franchisor has agreed to assign existing franchise agreements and waive renewal fees — a meaningful concession given the remaining lease term.



SBA 7(a) eligible. Seller is open to a 15% seller note on full standby for 24 months to support lender underwriting. Asset sale with no transferred liabilities. Equipment list and store-level P&Ls available under NDA.



Reason for sale: Owner reallocating capital to other operating businesses. Not a distressed sale; both locations have eight-plus years of operating history

Market Outlook / Competition
Stands out with its made-to-order, customizable donuts — a unique experience not offered by traditional chains. The brand benefits from national marketing support, proven operating systems, and growing brand recognition. Local competitors tend to be small independents with limited resources, while larger chains focus on mass production rather than customization. With three established locations in prime California markets, this franchise enjoys a strong competitive advantage through product differentiation, franchisor backing, and prime retail positionin
Opportunities for Growth
Expand catering and corporate accounts (currently underutilized).

Increase delivery sales via platforms like UberEats, DoorDash, and Grubhub.

Boost local marketing and community events to drive brand visibility.

Opportunity to expand hours, seasonal promotions, and cross-location synergies.

Experienced staff and managers already in place, enabling semi-absentee ownership or multi-unit expansion.
