30 years in business, and this Phoenix commercial catering company runs about 600 corporate, wedding and social events a year without its owners in the kitchen. 61 W-2 employees, a manager over every department, a salaried executive chef and executive sous chef running production, and a bookkeeper handling payroll and payables. Both owners work part time by choice and spend their hours on oversight, not production. The company holds preferred caterer contracts at some of Arizona's best known attractions, museums and event venues, positions that took decades to earn and that a competitor cannot buy its way into.
Events are already contracted for the balance of 2026 and well into 2027. Production runs out of one of the largest and best equipped commercial catering kitchens in Arizona, purpose built by the sellers and available to purchase with the business (for an additional $3.3M) or lease at a market rate with an option to buy. The sellers are retiring after 30 years. SBA lenders already familiar with this deal are available for qualified buyers.
