Rare opportunity to acquire a fully equipped, health department approved, commercial food production equipment package already installed in Missoula, Montana. This is a true turnkey commercial kitchen opportunity— not a startup build-out, not a distressed asset liquidation. No real estate included in asking price. Lease to be negotiated separately.

Offered at $175,000 OBO, the sale includes all furniture, fixtures & equipment (FF&E) plus the established business name, brand assets, online presence, vendor relationships, and operational systems of Dandelion Catering (est. 2021). This facility was professionally designed for high-volume catering, meal prep, and packaged food production. Although the space does offer a small cafe/retail frontage or the option to host private 12-seat chefs table events, it is strategically built for throughput and efficiency — not sit down, full service restaurant concepts.

All major equipment is installed, operational, and integrated. Infrastructure of this scale typically requires well over asking price in equipment sourcing, contractor coordination, permitting, and downtime. Here, it is already completed and ready to produce from day one. This is a plug-and-play food production facility ready for an experienced operator to step in and scale. The buyer may continue operating under the existing catering brand or leverage the infrastructure for their own concept.

Ideal Buyer Profile

This opportunity is best suited for:

Established catering companies expanding capacity

High-volume event operators

Meal prep & prepared food businesses

Packaged food manufacturers

Commissary kitchen operators

Food entrepreneurs ready to scale up from shared-use kitchen space

It is not ideal for:

Sit-down restaurant concepts requiring dining room build-out

Food truck startups seeking minimal infrastructure

Hobby or first-time operators

Businesses that require high-volume drive-by or walk-up traffic

Included in Sale:

All commercial kitchen equipment (FF&E), Ranges, double-stack convection oven, tilt skillet, stockpot burner, prep tables, shelving, dish rack, high temp dishwasher, triple sink, prep sinks, handwash sinks, ice machine, reach-in refrigeration, freezers and SO much more.

Mobile catering equipment package
Smallwares, storage, service ware
Business name, signage & brand identity
Established online presence & public reviews
Vendor relationships & production systems
Full Espresso Bar setup with power and water filtration installed

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

Commercial kitchens of this size rarely come available as complete, integrated packages. Most operators spend months piecing together and assembling equipment, coordinating contractors, navigating permitting and health department approvals, all while absorbing non-revenue build-out time.

This facility eliminates that friction:

No build-out delays

No guessing on equipment compatibility

No waiting for installations

No permitting uncertainty

It is operational from day one.

Financial Overview:

Assumable long-term lease available separately for qualified operators. 5 years preferred, ground level 1500 sq.ft. for $3000/mo. base rent + NNN. Renter responsible for gas and electric on top of the other expenses.

If you are searching for a commercial kitchen in Missoula, a turnkey catering business, or a food production facility ready to scale, this opportunity delivers immediate infrastructure without startup risk.

Serious inquiries from well-funded, experienced operators welcomed.
