About this 1,750 sq ft business

Rare opportunity to acquire a fully equipped, licensed commercial commissary kitchen in Marin County. This turnkey facility provides the infrastructure needed for catering companies, meal-preparation businesses, bakers, private chefs, food trucks, consumer packaged-goods producers, delivery concepts, and other permitted food-service operators. Strategically located near Highway 101, the kitchen serves as a convenient operating hub for Marin County, Sonoma Wine Country, Napa Valley, San Francisco, the East Bay, and surrounding communities. Its central location allows operators to efficiently reach many of Northern California's most active hospitality, corporate, wedding, and private-event markets. The facility is approved for commercial food preparation and zoned for retail food use, creating opportunities beyond traditional commissary operations. Potential uses may include catering production, prepared meals, takeout, delivery, pop-ups, cooking classes, private events, retail food concepts, and shared-kitchen memberships, subject to applicable permits and approvals. The kitchen is currently used by six independent food businesses generating approximately $2,900 in combined monthly rental income. A new operator may continue the shared-kitchen model, increase utilization, expand membership, occupy the facility for its own food-service operation, or combine personal use with recurring rental income. The extensive equipment package includes a commercial hood system, 10-burner Imperial range with ovens, Imperial charbroiler with convection oven, walk-in refrigerator, two reach-in freezers, ice machine, Hobart 30-quart mixer, stainless-steel preparation tables, multiple sinks, shelving, baker's racks, mobile ovens, cookware, catering equipment, serving pieces, smallwares, and related operating assets. The premises also include food-preparation and storage areas, office space, a tasting or meeting area, restroom, HVAC, water heater, and supporting commercial infrastructure. A detailed inventory and equipment list will be provided to qualified prospects.
