- Opportunities for Growth
- 78% Revenue Growth Since 2019. There are only so many seats available, but a new owner could expand by: opening a 2nd location, developing the carryout and mobile order side of the business, advertising holiday smoked Turkey/Prime Rib/Ham to go, and expanding catering services. Right now the business does NOT rely on Uber Eats/Door Dash/Grub Hub, etc. and has limited catering offerings. Definitely room to expand that part of the business through marketing.
