Business Description
Exceptional opportunity to acquire Chan Chan, a recognized Korean street food and bunsik concept located in Huntington Beach, offering buyers access to a proven brand with strong cultural relevance and built-in growth potential. The concept is centered on modern Korean comfort food inspired by K-food and K-pop street culture, a category that continues to gain traction throughout Southern California and nationally.

The Huntington Beach location operates with the same menu and proprietary recipes as the high-performing Irvine Chan Chan, which has demonstrated strong consumer demand and brand recognition. The sale includes a limited, conditional right to operate under the Chan Chan concept, including use of the Chan Chan name, at the Huntington Beach location only. All intellectual property remains with the seller. Training will be provided for up to 30 days. The primary value of this opportunity lies in the established Chan Chan brand, which significantly reduces concept and startup risk for the next owner.

The restaurant occupies approximately 1,713 square feet and is fully equipped with a commercial kitchen designed for efficient, high-volume production. Included in the sale are two standing refrigerators, two freezers, a 10-foot hood, multiple refrigerated prep counters (two-door and three-door units), an ice machine, and a beer dispenser. The space is functional, well laid out, and turnkey, making it costly and time-consuming to replicate under current construction conditions.

Current gross sales average approximately $50,000 per month. The business has been operated under absentee ownership, presenting a clear opportunity for a hands-on operator to improve margins through tighter labor management, operational efficiencies, and active leadership. To date, little to no formal marketing has been implemented, leaving meaningful upside through basic local marketing, community engagement, and catering opportunities. Huntington Beach’s diverse demographic base and strong surrounding business presence make catering a natural and scalable growth channel.

Lease terms are favorable for the market, with monthly rent of approximately $6,850, supporting a reasonable occupancy cost relative to sales. The asking price of $210,000 represents an attractive entry point for buyers seeking an established, branded concept rather than a startup.

Chan Chan is well suited for owner-operators, multi-unit operators, or buyers looking to scale a culturally relevant Korean street food brand. Opportunities to acquire an operating business with brand equity, intellectual property, training, and clear operational upside are increasingly rare. This offering provides a strong foundation for immediate cash flow with long-term growth potential.

Market Outlook / Competition
The business has not actively marketed since opening. With Huntington Beach’s diverse population and surrounding businesses, simple marketing and catering efforts could drive meaningful growth.
Opportunities for Growth
With hands-on ownership, this business offers major upside. The same menu and concept at the Irvine location generated over $3 million in sales from 2020–2024, proving strong demand. The Huntington Beach store has been absentee-run with little to no marketing. Increased owner involvement, basic marketing, and catering to nearby businesses could significantly boost sales and unlock the location’s full potential in this diverse, high-traffic area with strong local demand.
