$ 150,000
CF : $ 116,752
A rare chance to acquire a thriving specialty bakery with both wholesale and retail revenue streams. Known for its clean-label, gluten-free, and plant-based baked goods, the business has built a loyal following in the health-conscious food market. The facility operates under a California Processed Food Registration (PFR) license, allowing manufacturing, packaging, and distribution well beyond retail sales. Wholesale contracts are already in place, complemented by retail presence and strong e-commerce systems with nationwide shipping. A seasoned team runs day-to-day operations (head baker, assistants, driver, marketing support), while the owner spends ~10 hours/week on oversight and client relationships. This structure offers a smooth transition and the option for semi-absentee ownership. Growth opportunities include: expanding wholesale distribution to nationwide sales in retail stores, scaling online sales, and leveraging the booming demand for gluten-free, clean-ingredient foods. This turnkey operation is ideal for an industry operator or entrepreneur seeking a fast-growing niche in the baked goods market.
