BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

Motivated Seller will Consider All Serious Offers - 100% Relocatable Business

The pizza business that consists of five wood fired pizza trailers & equipment can provide an excellent way to immediately generate revenues and profits. This unique concept fills the gap in the mobile truck foodservice craze that has consumed the Northwest. The concept combines a high quality applewood-fired Pizza with affordability, timely production, and convenience. According to Business Post, “Pizza is the world’s favorite fast-food with a staggering 3 billion pizza consumed each year”. Fast food, but not your typical fast food.

The custom 12’ X 18’ trailers can be operated at “fixed” locations or used as “mobile” operations for catering seasonal activities and special events. The trailers can be towed with any ¾ ton truck in much the same way as any travel trailer. In a fixed location the operation only requires three parking stalls, a 30-amp 220 electrical power source, and access to water, garbage, and restroom facilities. Rents on fixed location sites commonly range between $850 - $2,000 per month, which often includes many related monthly operating expenses such as power and garbage. Most fixed locations operate on short-term leases and even on a month-to-month basis; thereby proving ultimate flexibility with the ability to re-locate to superior retail site opportunities as they arise. The mobile concept greatly reduces the investment cost and adapts to a wide range of location types without the constraints of a conventional brick & mortar location. For the Landlords, these trailers are a welcome addition that offers an amenity for their customers, while also creating a new profit center from what is typically unused common area. Target fixed locations include gas stations, strip malls, large-box retailer parking lots and any other common area that offers good visibility, ample parking, good access, and heavy traffic. A single trailer at a good, fixed location can generate in excess of $350,000 per year. Most fixed locations are operated 7-days per week with 1-2 minimum wage employees staffing the business on each shift. Fixed locations generally operate on flexible short-term leases with startup costs averaging < $7,500 per location. Catering & special events can include a wide range of venues such as weddings, parties, sporting events, and more.

The five turnkey trailers are all equipped with a pizza oven, 6’ prep-refer, signage, menus, and all necessary small wares. Presently the trailers are set up for wood fired pizza but could be easily re-configured for other types of pizza ovens or possibly other types of food service. Currently two trailers are in operation and three are in storage.

The owner who is looking to retire is offering the 5 tailers & equipment, “as-is” to a qualified managing partner who plans to be involved in the day-to-day operations of the business for $75,000 cash plus a 30% stake in the new entity with a buy out clause.
