Established Restaurant + Wholesale Food Business | 100-Year Brand

Established, profitable restaurant and wholesale food business with a 100-year operating history, strong brand recognition, and significant growth potential. The business operates two locations, including a drive-thru, and generates consistent cash flow with a loyal customer base. The company has been the focus on many shows on cable network. To visit the locations and try the famous sandwich is a true Montana experience. The brand has gained national recognition, featured on Food Network’s The Best Thing I Ever Ate and named the best sandwich in Montana by multiple publications such as , Reader’s Digest, Gourmet Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, and MSN.com. It has also been highlighted in numerous travel magazines and guidebooks as a must- visit dining destination

A major upside lies in the wholesale division, where current demand exceeds production capacity. Existing customers are requesting increased volume, and additional distributors have expressed interest, creating immediate expansion opportunity. Researching 3rd-party kitchens to quickly increase production ability would move focus from manufacturing to sales and distribution.

Property Information

Location:

This Southwest Montana-based quick-service restaurant has operated continuously since 1932 and is best known for its flagship pork chop sandwich—a regionally iconic product with nearly a century of brand equity and community loyalty. The business began in 1924 with street-corner food service and transitioned into a permanent brick-and-mortar presence in 1932 at its current flagship location.

Family-owned since 1969, the business has experienced steady expansion under second-generation leadership, evolving from a single-location eatery into a vertically integrated operation with wholesale distribution, multiple retail locations, and a nationally recognized brand. Leadership has scaled sales to over $2 million annually, driven by strategic expansion and strong distributor partnerships across the Rocky Mountain region.

The restaurant has been featured by major national media outlets, including the Food Network, The Wall Street Journal, Gourmet Magazine, and Reader’s Digest, consistently earning accolades for its flagship menu item. This media exposure has translated into sustained customer demand, brand loyalty, and market distinction.
