<description><![CDATA[ Price at $649,000 this long established USDA/FDA Approved Food Manufacturer produces a line of gourmet products under their own brand for national distribution to hospitality and healthcare foodservice companies. The company also partners with several upscale, retail clients seeking to please their own discerning Bay Area customers. 

Known for its product innovation, the Company will provide new product scale-up services to Fortune 100 food companies in concert with nationally known food product developers and marketers.

Founded in 1985, the company offers a unique depth of food sophistication resulting from a combination of high-end chef skills and experience, plus a deep knowledge of frozen food technology, food safety systems, and quality controls normally found only among much larger manufacturers.

Its state-of-the-art manufacturing plant is located on the San Francisco peninsula. The plant has over 6,000 square feet of manufacturing and warehouse space. A U.S. Department of Agriculture inspection approval has broadened the scope of production to include meat and poultry processing. 

It is also FDA-inspected and all production is under a HAACP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point) program. 

Management is open to an outright acquisition where it would transition out of the business within an agreed-upon time period. During the transition time, the new owner(s) would be guided through the various aspects of complexity, specifically, U.S. government regulations. 

The company's greatest asset is its staff; great attention is paid to their training and retention. This combined experience and long term &lsquo;group memory' will provide a valued resource of expertise for the new owner's continuing success. ]]> </description>

<guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.vrbusinessbrokers.com/Listing/Organic-Gelato-Manufacturer-and-Retailer.aspx</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ The company is an organic, artisanal ice cream manufacturer and retailer located in an affluent Marin County community. All of the gelati and sorbetti are made from scratch using local, organic and seasonal ingredients. The manufacturing plant is located behind their retail storefront. The storefront is very high end and chic with granite counters, local artists displayed on the walls and an Italian made display.

The business opened in June 2007. Their flavors range from the familiar Chocolate Chip and Cookies n' Cream to Tahitian Vanilla, Salted Chocolate, Honey Coffee, and Hazelnut. Their location in the hip and very affluent community coupled with their product quality has created tremendous exposure. They have had multiple articles in the Marin IJ, Santa Rosa Press Democrat, San Francisco Brides Magazine, and Edible Marin Wine Country Magazine as well as various websites. 

The owners have requests to open additional locations around the SF Bay Area, have been invited to bring their product into Whole Foods, and the product is offered in some of the area's most upscale restaurants Nonetheless, the owners have decided that they do not have the energy and interest in growing the business further. The new owner has the opportunity to purchase a profitable business, recognized and trademarked brand name, and production facility for less than the cost of opening a new ice cream/gelato manufacturing business.

This is a turnkey opportunity. The current location has enough production capacity to support multiple locations and entrance into commercial accounts like Whole Foods. The operating platform is largely established. This business has tremendous expansion opportunities. One opportunity is to open small 300sf storefronts in high traffic affluent neighborhoods in San Francisco and Berkeley with production occurring in the existing facility. The increased brand awareness can lead to additional company owned and/or franchised locations.
