Sport And Work Boat Manufacturing - 60 Years
$ 1,295,000
CF : $ 129,556
This celebrated Southern California based high performance sport and work boat manufacturer boasts nearly 60 years of goodwill. The second-generation family-owned company’s watercrafts, which are between 20 and 42 feet in length, are fixtures in the professional diving, fishing, surfing, research, patrol and sheriff departments due to their durability and ability to remain highly stable in heavy swells. As a result of their utility and functionality, these vessels are ever present in offshore waters from Alaska to Mexico and Hawaii. The company sells direct to the consumer and regularly maintains a 1-2 year deposit-based waitlist. This business operates out of a production yard with an office, and several enclosed materials rooms and work sheds. The office and yard lease for $6,805 per month on a secure lease with options to be negotiated. All of the company’s furniture, fixtures, equipment and goodwill be included in the sale. The seller will agree to work for a reasonable transition prior, and may consider remaining the ‘face’ of the company for an agreed upon period depending on the overall offer and terms. While the commercial boating industry is a competitive one, few manufacturers could hope to have the name recognition and respect that this company has established in its vessels. In fact, despite being build constructed and marketed for their functionality, the company has seen a dramatic increase in well healed leisure boat clients that appreciate the boat’s durability and performance characteristics in the large swells near the Channel Islands, Alaska and Hawaii. Needless to say, few category competitors can claim to possess comparable hull designs, craftsmanship or customized options that allow this firm to attract leisure boaters to their commercial crafts with few amenities! New management may take this legendary company, which is the epitome of a mom-and-pop lifestyle business, in any number of directions to realize its significant growth potential. To begin, the company has operated at near capacity for its entire existence. In fact, customers anticipate a 1-2 year waitlist, and know they can only order limited units at a time due to customer demand coupled with the production yard’s limitations. Historically, they can only accommodate 12 to 24 boats per year based on order sizes (they can do 2-20’ boats per month, but a 40’ unit may take over a year). With a new conversion facility, supply can not only be streamlined, but significantly expanded at a reduced cost. Also, each craft is custom made, which necessarily impacts efficiencies and costs. New operators may wish to continue in this tradition, but they may also carry an inventory the most popular ‘staple’ models or they may choose to outsource their unique fiberglass hull production component - where an estimated 25% cost savings may be realized if the hulls, which constitute 40% of the cost (at 50% of the man hours), are created via vacuum infusion injection molding instead of a manual method. Additional savings may be realized by purchasing key materials, resin and components in bulk. From a sales perspective, the company hasn’t truly actively promote its vessels as they have lacked the capacity to meet demand. If they had a larger production facility and could carry inventory they could attend professional and personal craft trade shows, establish a retail presence by opening a showroom or establishing a dealer network. If they were capitalized, they could not only stock ready-made units, but they also could self-finance orders (rather than rely on progress payments or commercial loans) which local municipality and government contracts require. Being capitalized or having a sufficient credit facility, coupled with the ability to scale production, also opens the door for local and federal agencies (e.g. harbor patrol, fish and wildlife, the coast guard, etc.). that approach them to purchase several units at a time, without progress payments. Commercial fishing, diving, harbor patrol and other clients have expressed an interest in leasing units, however, the company does not have the conversion facility or capital to cover construction costs, let alone have the bandwidth to set-up and manage a lease program. New management may launch a specific division to focus on this. For some of these clients whose needs are harbor, bay or coastal based, new operators may also consider developing a lighter, less formidable bay boat hull design. Finally, since mass production hasn’t been possible, no efforts have been made to become an approved vendor for federal, military or Department of Defense contracts. If the company were an approved vendor, or if were owned by a qualifying party favored in such contracts (female, minority, veteran) additional avenues for growth may exist.

Restaurant And Bar - Loyal Following, Good Lease
$ 295,000
CF : $ 23,234
This style restaurant and bar offers a buyer an unbelievable location and at an attractive lease rate from which to launch their own concept, or to build upon its already proven concept. The sale comes complete with a liquor license, a bar, a full kitchen, as well as a patio that alcohol can be served on. The venue is ideally located to cater the large number of nearby state and county employees, the student population, as well as the number of young professionals in the immediate area including attorneys, accountants and various types of consultants. The 1,500 square foot venue plus patio leases for $3,098 per month on a lease until August 31, 2028 with options to be negotiated. It is estimated that the venue can seat up to 30 patrons inside, with an additional 26 on the covered patio. The business’s furniture, fixtures, equipment and Type 47 Liquor License will be included in the sale. As a limited number of restaurants and entertainment venues exist in the highly popular area, competition is considered to be medium. The venue’s location lends itself to cater to a business lunch hour and happy hour crowd, as well as separate evening and night crowd, while its versatile layout lends itself to indoor and outdoor dining as well as take-out and delivery service. This restaurant and bar benefits from a proven concept with attractively low overhead. As a result, new management may wish to maintain the concept and operation ‘as is’ with modifications as they deep appropriate, or new management may wish to capitalize on the prime location, versatile layout, liquor license and outdoor patio to capitalize on the area’s popularity by implementing an alternate concept. Liquor could historically be served on the patio until 12 am on Friday and Saturday and 11 pm Sunday to Thursday. Liquor can be served inside until 2 am daily. These times, together with the space’s dimensions covered by the Conditional Use Permit (CUP) and on file with the state Alcohol Beverage Control (ABC) should be confirmed during diligence.

Established Franchise Food Prep Business
$ 50,000
This is a meal prep franchise specializing in quick and easy dinners designed with families in mind. This location is in an affluent part of the South Bay Area, California. Families get meals in three different ways. They can order online, selecting from a monthly menu of entrees. The team will prep, portion, and bag the meals, ready for the family to refrigerate or freeze. Alternatively, people can come into the store, and prep the meals themselves onsite, which allows for greater customization. Lastly, they can order meals to be delivered. Dream Dinners is a great place to gather and prep meals with neighborhood friends. The recipes are wide-ranging, with options that cook in under 30 minutes and no-mess pan meals that go straight in the oven. Each recipe includes easy-to-follow cooking instructions to make things simple. The owners each have full-time jobs and have been running this as a side business since day one. The efforts of both have finally become too much, and they are looking for a buyer who can invest their full time and energy into the business. A growth-minded buyer can take an active approach and build the business: advertise to local families and community groups, promote through social media, offer food prep classes, host creative parties and social events, and even rent out the space to other meal prep businesses to increase revenue. Alternatively, the space would work well for other well-established concepts that do not need to cook, as the facility has no grease traps or hoods. This is an opportunity waiting for a buyer to grow. The seller’s split attention is a buyer’s gain: they’ll get a $200k+ buildout for $50k, without the hassle of construction and permitting. If meal prep is your dream business, this could be the opportunity for you. Call the agent today!

California Business Market Insight
California's business landscape varies dramatically by region and category. The San Francisco Bay Area and Silicon Valley remain the country's leading hub for technology and professional services, while Los Angeles County's entertainment, retail, and hospitality sectors make it one of the most active markets in the state for restaurant and retail acquisitions. Orange County and San Diego County combine affluent residential demand with strong tourism and biotech industries, driving steady activity in healthcare, franchise, and hospitality categories. The Central Valley — including Fresno, Bakersfield, and Sacramento — remains the state's agricultural backbone, supporting a consistent market for food production, distribution, and agriculture-adjacent businesses. The Inland Empire's logistics and distribution corridor, anchored by its proximity to the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, has become an active market for warehouse, transportation, and industrial service businesses. Smaller metro areas and coastal counties continue to support strong demand for laundromats, gas stations, liquor stores, and other everyday-service businesses that anchor local communities throughout the state.
