About the Business
This opportunity offers a buyer a fully remodeled deli and catering restaurant in a busy West St. Louis County location.
The current business serves breakfast, lunch, catering and platters, providing several revenue channels within a relatively compact operating model.
The current business took over a location where a deli and catering operation had served the area for more than 20 years. The surrounding area is described by the seller as an industrial area with limited nearby food-service choices, creating an established market for convenient breakfast, lunch and catering services.
The restaurant has been fully updated, providing a buyer with an opportunity to step into an existing food-service environment without the significant expense and time associated with a new restaurant build-out.
Business Operations
The current operation is open Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., creating a focused daytime restaurant model.
The seller reports minimal owner hours, with key employees including a full-time front-of-house employee and a kitchen manager. The owner currently handles scheduling, invoices, menu modifications and social media.
This structure provides an opportunity for a new owner to maintain the existing daytime model or expand operating hours and services based on the needs of the surrounding market.
Current Products and Services
- Breakfast
- Lunch
- Catering
- Platters
The existing kitchen and restaurant setup also provides flexibility for a buyer to develop additional food-service offerings or tailor the concept to a specific customer base.
Expansion Potential
The current business provides several opportunities for a new owner to build revenue and expand the operation.
- Expand catering sales
- Increase corporate catering
- Develop relationships with surrounding businesses
- Expand breakfast and lunch offerings
- Increase marketing and social media activity
- Extend operating hours
- Add delivery services
- Develop a stronger recurring customer program
- Expand platter and group-order opportunities
- Utilize the space as a commissary
- Support a food truck operation
- Introduce a new deli or specialty food concept
The seller specifically identifies the location as being in an industrial area with limited other choices, while the business's current service mix provides a foundation for further catering and food-service growth.
Facility Details:
The restaurant has been fully remodeled and updated, providing a ready-to-use food-service space. The existing setup is suitable for the current deli and catering operation and offers flexibility for other food-service applications.
Location Advantages:
The business is located in a busy portion of West St. Louis County within an industrial area where the seller reports limited nearby restaurant choices. This creates an opportunity to serve the surrounding workforce and businesses through breakfast, lunch, catering and group orders.
Transition Opportunity
The seller is pursuing other ventures and is offering training and assistance with the transition to a new owner.
With a recently remodeled space, attractive rent, established food-service infrastructure and a flexible operating model, this opportunity is well suited for an owner-operator, caterer, chef, food entrepreneur, or existing food-service operator looking for an additional location.
