Start-Up Description
Turn-key DonutNV mobile franchise serving the Richmond–Lexington region with 40+ confirmed events already booked and an established event pipeline in place. A short video showing the donut production process and event setup is included with the listing. Many scheduled events generate $1,000–$2,000+ in revenue depending on attendance and product mix.

Acquire the only operating mobile unit for a nationally recognized gourmet mini donut franchise in the Kentucky market. Launched less than a year ago, the business has already established strong corporate, university, and event relationships across Richmond, Berea, Lexington, Georgetown, Elizabethtown, and Shelbyville.

The DonutNV concept centers on hot, fresh mini donuts made to order on-site, paired with specialty beverages. The visual production process naturally attracts lines at events and drives strong impulse purchases. The brand has built national recognition and operates within a proven mobile food and event catering model.

The operation is fully built, fully branded, and completely turn-key. The premium mobile trailer is in excellent condition and includes all equipment required for immediate operation. Approximately $4,300 in transferable inventory is included in the sale along with established vendor relationships and confirmed future event bookings.

Current ownership operates approximately 15 hours per week and has consistently declined additional events due to limited availability. Most events operate within a 2–4 hour service window, making the business highly flexible for an owner-operator. Demand already exceeds current capacity. The primary growth lever is simple: accept more events and expand geographic coverage.

The business has secured private catered events with regional employers, healthcare organizations, universities, and major event planners. Vendor fees for currently scheduled festivals and events have already been paid, reducing near-term operating costs and allowing a new owner to begin generating revenue immediately.

Kentucky remains largely undeveloped for the brand. Additional territories and mobile units may be purchased from the franchisor on a first-come, first-served basis, creating a clear path for multi-unit expansion within the state.

This opportunity is ideal for an owner-operator seeking a flexible schedule and scalable growth, a multi-unit franchisee expanding territory coverage, or an investor-backed buyer prepared to deploy additional units and staff.

Ownership is selling due to expanding professional commitments outside the business. The foundation is built and demand is already present. The next owner simply needs the time and focus to capture the opportunity.

Due to the existing event pipeline and prepaid vendor fees, the seller will prioritize qualified buyers prepared to move quickly.
