Columbia, SC
Not disclosed

Established Box Lunch & Catering Franchise, $300K Asset Value IncludedStep into ownership of an established box lunch delivery and catering franchise in Columbia, SC, built with franchise systems, trained staff, local customers, and $300,000 in included equipment.Most buyers start with no kitchen, no customers, no staff, and no proof of demand. This opportunity gives a new owner a head start with an operating business, existing customers, trained employees, and a recognized franchise model already in place.Business Highlights• Asking Price: $199,900• Average Seller’s Discretionary Earnings: $99,946• TTM Revenue: $633,210• TTM Seller’s Discretionary Earnings: $101,777• Location: Columbia, SC• Employees: Part-time team in place, including bakery, commissary, sandwich, salad, expediting, and catering roles• Customer Base: Approximately 100 regular customers and 1,300 total customers• Included Assets: $300,000 in equipmentAbout the Franchise BrandThis business is part of a long-standing box lunch delivery and catering franchise model focused on fresh meals for offices, meetings, events, and business customers.The franchise provides established processes, recipes, market development, training, operational support, marketing resources, and brand recognition. The current owner chose this franchise after reviewing several options and noted that the processes, food, and marketplace stood out.The brand is positioned around dependable catering, boxed lunches, premium ingredients, fresh-baked bread and cookies, and individually packaged meals for business and event customers.Why Buy an Existing Franchise Instead of Starting New?Buying an existing franchise gives a buyer a faster path into operations compared to launching a new location from scratch.This opportunity already includes:• Existing customer base and revenue history• Trained staff already in place• Retrofitted kitchen facility• Franchise systems and recipes• $300,000 in included equipment• Brand recognition and local goodwill• Operational processes already being usedA new owner can focus on growth instead of spending the first year building the foundation.Why This Business Stands OutThis business has several buyer-facing advantages:• Recognized franchise brand• Loyal customer base• Stable sales and profits noted by the seller• Premium brand perception• Consistently positive customer feedback• Efficient operating processes• High-performing employees• Growing marketThe seller also noted that sales are not dependent on one large customer or a few customers, which helps reduce customer concentration risk.Growth OpportunitiesA motivated new owner has clear growth levers already identified by the seller:• Open more days• Hire additional employees• Improve the sales process or sales team• Hire a sales manager• Expand into surrounding areas, including Sumter, Fairfield County, and Orangeburg• Pursue weekend opportunities with major customers such as the University of South Carolina and government services, including the National Guard, Army, or MarinesThe current owner’s message is simple: the model, recipes, processes, and market development are already in place. With the right sales approach and consistent effort, the business has significant room for growth.Ideal Buyer:This is best suited for a hands-on owner/operator who is strong in sales, customer relationships, team leadership, and local business development.This is not a passive ownership opportunity. The current owner works approximately 50 hours per week and handles bookkeeping, sales, HR, team coaching, customer relations, strategy, sales, marketing, social media, networking, and other responsibilities.Reason for Sale:The owner is retiring, creating an opportunity for a new buyer to step into an established operation and continue building on the foundation already in place.Next Steps:Own an established catering and box lunch franchise with customers, equipment, staff, systems, and room to grow.
