Business Description
Exceptional opportunity to acquire an established, full-service catering and event company serving Marin County, Wine Country, San Francisco, and the greater Bay Area. Operating since 2007, the business has built an outstanding reputation for fresh cuisine, personalized menus, professional service, and dependable event execution.

The company provides catering for weddings, corporate functions, private dinners, celebrations of life, cocktail parties, brunches, social gatherings, and other special occasions. Its experienced team can manage the complete event experience, including menu development, tastings, staffing, setup, table service, rental coordination, breakdown, and cleanup.

The business benefits from repeat clientele, strong online reviews, established venue partnerships, corporate relationships, vacation-rental referrals, and a meaningful presence within the local community. Approximately half of its business has historically come from weddings, providing a strong foundation in one of Northern California’s most active event markets.

Operations are based from a licensed and fully equipped commercial commissary kitchen in a high-traffic Marin County location. Convenient freeway access makes the facility a central hub for serving Marin, Sonoma, Napa, San Francisco, the East Bay, and surrounding communities. The facility is also zoned for retail food use, creating additional opportunities for prepared meals, takeout, delivery, pop-ups, and other food concepts.

Six independent food businesses currently rent kitchen space, generating approximately $2,900 in supplemental monthly income. The sale is expected to include extensive commercial kitchen and catering equipment, office furnishings, operating systems, digital assets, and two delivery vehicles, subject to final agreement.

Approximately 23 part-time employees support food preparation, event service, delivery, setup, and cleanup. Systems are already established for scheduling, proposals, contracts, client communication, staffing, and event coordination.

The company is a certified Marin County Green Business and has earned recognition through its sustainability practices, nonprofit support, charitable food donations, and community involvement.

Significant growth potential exists through expanded corporate catering, additional venue relationships, recurring office-meal programs, private-chef services, retail food sales, delivery, and greater utilization of the commissary kitchen.

The owner is committed to providing hands-on training, introductions, and transition support. This turnkey opportunity is ideal for a chef, caterer, restaurant operator, hospitality group, or food-service company seeking an established Bay Area platform with a respected reputation, experienced staff, valuable infrastructure, and multiple income streams.

Facilities & Assets
The business operates from a fully equipped, licensed commercial commissary kitchen in a high-traffic Marin County location. The facility is certified for commercial food preparation, zoned for retail food use, and generates supplemental income from six kitchen renters totaling approximately $2,900 per month. The kitchen includes a walk-in refrigerator, two reach-in freezers, commercial hood system, 10-burner Imperial range with ovens, Imperial charbroiler with convection oven, ice machine, Hobart 30-quart mixer, stainless prep tables, sinks, shelving, baker’s racks, mobile ovens, water heater, HVAC, office, tasting area, and restroom. Included in the sale are catering and kitchen equipment, cookware, utensils, chafing dishes, platters, dishware, serving ware, coffee equipment, ice chests, office furniture, printer, phones, and related operating assets. Vehicles include a 2015 Nissan NV200 delivery van and a 2022 Ford Transit 250 high-roof cargo van.
Market Outlook / Competition
The business is strategically located in Marin County with convenient freeway access, providing a central base for serving the North Bay and greater San Francisco Bay Area. Within approximately 45 minutes, depending on traffic, the company can access San Francisco, Sonoma County, Napa Valley, the East Bay, and surrounding communities. This location supports weddings, corporate functions, private events, and in-home catering across several active event markets.

Operating since 2007, the company has earned an excellent reputation for quality food, professional service, and dependable event execution. Its advantages include strong online reviews, repeat clients, established venue and corporate relationships, experienced staff, a licensed commissary kitchen, and community involvement. The company is also a certified Marin County Green Business and supports local nonprofits and charitable events.
Opportunities for Growth
The business offers several opportunities for growth without requiring a new facility or operating platform. A buyer could expand corporate catering, recurring office-meal programs, private-chef services, weddings, venue partnerships, and vacation-rental catering throughout Marin, Sonoma, Napa, San Francisco, and the greater Bay Area. The licensed commissary kitchen and retail food zoning also create opportunities for prepared meals, takeout, delivery, pop-up dining, cooking classes, and other retail food concepts. Additional growth may come from increasing kitchen-rental occupancy, strengthening digital marketing, updating online menus, pursuing new venue partnerships, and expanding relationships with event planners, wineries, hotels, and corporate clients. The existing brand, equipment, staff, systems, reviews, and central location provide a strong foundation for an active owner or established hospitality operator.
