Description
The current operation combines a café and specialty grocery concept, generating established revenue with a loyal customer base already in place. For an entrepreneur looking to enter the food and beverage industry, this is a true turnkey opportunity with substantial value in the existing infrastructure alone. For an experienced operator, the location and buildout provide a unique platform to introduce a new café, bakery, coffee concept, wine bar, specialty retail business, or other hospitality venture.
This is also a nearly complete food service build-out, making it especially attractive for a pizza concept, fast-casual restaurant, or similar operator looking to avoid the time and cost of construction.
Major infrastructure and kitchen highlights include:
Triple sink setup (commercial grade)
Triple filtered water system
Three (3) hot water heaters
Three (3) commercial AC units
300-amp electrical service (triple-phase power capacity)
Most electrical already on GFCI and specialty breakers
All-new lighting and ceiling systems throughout
Double-door delivery access with ramp for easy loading/unloading
Two (2) mop sinks for back-of-house efficiency
Two (2) restrooms
Over $200,000 has been invested into the space, including approximately $100,000+ in equipment, furniture, fixtures, and equipment (FF&E), along with an additional $100,000+ in leasehold improvements and buildout costs. The space is fully operational and ready for immediate ownership.
Highlights:
Prime Charleston location with some of the highest foot traffic in the county Charleston
Long-term lease in place at below-market rental rates
Established café and retail operation with existing revenue and customer base
Fully built-out commercial kitchen infrastructure (rare “plug-and-play” opportunity)
Over $200,000 invested in equipment, FF&E, and leasehold improvements
Fully turnkey operation with minimal downtime required for transition
Flexible concept potential—continue existing operations or introduce your own vision
Strong visibility, accessibility, and surrounding demographics
Seller relocating internationally, creating a motivated sale opportunity
Seller financing may be available for qualified buyers
Whether you're looking to operate the existing business or leverage an exceptional location and infrastructure for a new concept, opportunities like this rarely come to market. The combination of a premium location, favorable lease terms, established revenue, and substantial buildout investment creates significant value for the next owner.
The seller is committed to a smooth transition and ensuring continuity for the incoming operator.

Cask Strength Bourbon Brand - High Proof
Call/Email
CF : $ 300,000
Our client sources an excellent quality bourbon that has a higher yield than a traditional 6-8-year aged bourbon. Due to the higher yield because of less evaporation, they are able to keep the MSRP very competitive and are growing rapidly. They partner with a smaller craft distillery as their co-packer in order to keep production costs down. The founder is a rising, Tennessee-based singer/songwriter with thousands of followers. He uses, and will continue to use, his social media and concerts to publicize the bourbon and allows fans to become partial minority owners of the brand, thus far garnering approximately $200,000 as of the beginning of December 2022. Since the launch of the bourbon brand in 2018 it has earned some of the largest and most prestigious awards which can be awarded in the spirit industry. 1) Named Top 6 in the World in Forbes 2) Featured in Billboard, Rolling Stone, Uproxx, American Songwriter 3) Platinum Los Angeles 4) Double Gold San Francisco (largest award in the world for whiskey to earn) 5) Double Gold New York International 6) Double Gold New York Best Fifty 7) Gold Las Vegas 8) Silver Denver Our client has created a supportive community of real fans who love both the founder's music and the bourbon. Our client has taken the brand as far as 26 states. They will soon expand into Canada and exporting to South Africa & Vietnam is on the horizon. The founder and his partner are willing to stay on the team to bring the Bourbon brand to a much higher national level with a well-capitalized strategic buyer or owner-operator who is passionate about the bourbon industry. An NDA is required to secure a comprehensive Confidential Information Memorandum (CIM). Growth & Expansion: In CIM - NDA Required.

$ 130,000
CF : $ 64,277
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a well-established, turnkey restaurant for sale in a highly desirable coastal community of San Diego. Generating approximately $1M in annual revenue over the past four years, this San Diego restaurant has demonstrated consistent performance, strong local support, and stable cash flow. The restaurant is fully equipped for continued operations, featuring a grease trap, 10-foot hood, walk-in cooler, Type 41 beer and wine license, and a well-designed commercial kitchen layout. The premises include three separate spaces, 10 dedicated parking spots, and two restrooms, which may provide the opportunity for a future upgrade to a full liquor license (buyer to verify). The location also includes a permitted outdoor patio for beer and wine service, enhancing the customer experience in this coastal San Diego setting. The spacious layout allows for private events while maintaining regular dine-in, takeout, and restaurant delivery operations. This San Diego restaurant benefits from a loyal base of local patrons, strong foot traffic, and convenient parking for destination customers—an uncommon advantage for a coastal restaurant location. Catering services are currently offered but remain an underutilized growth opportunity, providing additional upside for a new owner looking to expand revenue streams in the San Diego restaurant market. The seller is motivated and has decided to pursue other interests, creating an excellent opportunity for an experienced restaurant operator or investor to acquire a proven, income-producing restaurant in San Diego and take it to the next level.
