Own an Iconic Carmel Pizzeria-Motivated Owner Retiring-Loyal Staff in Place
$ 365,000
The Setup 38 years. One location. One owner. Now it's time for the next chapter. The current owner built something real in Carmel—a pizzeria that became part of the community. Steady customers. Loyal staff. Predictable revenue. But after nearly four decades, they're ready to retire. That creates an opportunity for you: step into an established, operating restaurant with customers already lined up, staff ready to work with you, and systems that already function. This isn't a distressed sale or a failing concept. This is a successful business owner making a planned, intentional exit—which means a smooth transition and a serious buyer advantage. Why This Matters Motivated sellers create opportunities. The owner wants to see their legacy continue. They want the right person or team to take this forward. That alignment—between a retiring owner ready to help with transition and a buyer ready to grow the business—is exactly what makes restaurant acquisitions work. And the staff? They've been here. They know the customers. They know the operation. That's not something you can build quickly; it's something you inherit when you buy the right business. What You're Stepping Into ✓ Established Revenue Stream – ~$847,000 in annual gross sales (3-year average) ✓ Real Cash Flow – ~$73,000 in conservative adjusted earnings ✓ Trained, Loyal Staff – Team familiar with daily operations, customer relationships, and systems ✓ Built-In Customer Base – Dine-in, takeout, delivery, and event customers already established ✓ Prime Location – Carmel. Alongside the highway next to a major hotel. Exceptional visibility and traffic. ✓ Active Licenses – ABC Type 41 (Beer & Wine) + Type 58 (Caterer Permit) ✓ Turnkey Equipment – Ready to operate day one ✓ Lease Security – Term through September 2027 + options (SBA-friendly for qualified buyers) The Numbers (3-Year Conservative Average) • Gross Annual Revenue: $847,000 • Adjusted Cash Flow: $73,000 • Monthly Occupancy Cost: ~$7,900 • Seating: ~100 (2,672 sq ft + 489 sq ft heated patio) Why a Pizzeria Works Pizzerias are proven. Simple menu. Strong margins. Multiple revenue channels—dine-in, takeout, delivery, catering, private events. Customer loyalty is built in. Operational complexity is low. Profit potential is real. This pizzeria has been doing exactly that for 38 years. The Upside The current owner ran a solid operation. You acquire a stable foundation. Then you grow it: • Private events and group dining (currently underdeveloped) • Expanded catering and off-site revenue • Enhanced digital marketing and online ordering • Operational refinement and labor optimization • Menu and beverage program expansion The business runs well at $73K in annual cash flow. A motivated operator? There's real room to move that number higher. Transition Support Because the owner is retiring intentionally—not forced out—they're available to help with the handoff. Training. Customer introductions. Staff continuity. Operational guidance. That kind of partnership during transition is invaluable and not always available in restaurant acquisitions. Who This Is For • Experienced restaurant operators looking for your next proven location • Chefs ready to own and operate • Hospitality groups seeking an established, profitable concept • Entrepreneurs who want to step into a working business rather than build from zero • Anyone looking for a legitimate, cash-flowing business with growth potential The Reality This is a real restaurant. Real customers. Real revenue. Real staff. Real opportunity. Not a concept pitch. Not a space fantasy. A business that's worked for 38 years and is ready for the next owner who'll take it forward. Opportunities like this—established, profitable, with a motivated seller ready to facilitate a smooth transition and a team ready to support you—don't sit on the market long in Carmel. Confidential sale. NDA required. Contact Carmel Business Sales to learn more about acquiring this iconic Carmel pizzeria with a motivated, retiring owner and established team ready to support your transition.
