BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

Owner & family are ready to retire but want to keep it in Cleveland!

If you're from the Cleveland area, then you know the Hot Dog Diner & Burger Company. For 25 years we've been selling award winning food with creative twists. In the last year we've doubled our revenue and are looking to find the right owner who loves this business and wants a brand with immediate credibility and recognition. The owner and family have decided to retire and we're committed to help make a smooth transition.

This will be an asset sale of the brand, processes, equipment, franchise plans, and all the support you'll need from the current owners to pick your location and setup operations. We have a low cost lease extension available to keep the same location as well.

Hot Dog Diner stands out from the crowd as you won't find many other options to get the wide range of flavors and options in one location. We're focused on keeping the foundations of the food simple with freshly made burgers, hot dogs, chicken, and fries; then get a little eccentric with the toppings options.

We have many loyal customers and over 15K followers. We're asked daily to open locations all across the Cleveland area; and the next owner should.

We've taken great pride in being a family owned and run restaurant and want to ensure the brand thrives long into the future. If you love American comfort food, check out the Hot Dog Diner & Burger Company.

Thanks!!

Facilities
We operate in a freestanding building with a dining room for ~24 people and a drive-thru. We have a new lease available to us that can begin in Feb 2025. With the sale comes all our restaurant equipment including drive-thru system, fryers, grill, coolers, chest freezer (most of our food is fresh), steam tables, storage, ice machine, and all the hardware and utensils. This also includes all the branding rights.
Competition
We stand out in the restaurant business as one of the few with a wide variety of hot dogs, burgers, and chicken sandwiches. Our variety has netted us multiple awards over time for "Best Burgers", "Best Hot Dogs" and "Best Fries" in the Cleveland area. We've survived the ups and downs of the economy and restaurant lifecycles by running a focused and efficient business.
Growth & Expansion
We believe there is a great opportunity to leverage the brand awareness in Northeastern Ohio to expand to new cities , open a food truck, utilize a ghost kitchen, and franchise. We have franchise agreement documentation prepared, and would be proud to help the next owner expand.
Financing
Outright purchase or seller financed options available.
Support & Training
We are eager to assist the Buyer with a smooth transition to either continue operations at the current location or reset in a new location (in the Cleveland area). We will provide as much time as required to ensure all knowledge is transferred and be available long term for consultation. All the documentation for processes and recipes will be provided.
Reason for Selling
After 25 years, time to retire.
