EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This very profitable restaurant (with a full liquor license) is located in one of Maui’s most popular tourists’ locales, close to the beach, and has great traffic.  Their casual menu is enjoyed by visitors and residents alike. Their customer mix is about 75% visitors and 25% residents, so they are less dependent on the tourist market. 

 

They have been in business for almost 20 years and their friendly, easy-going atmosphere appeals to people of all ages and all backgrounds.  They have developed a strong visitor and resident customer recognition and preference.  Current service includes lunch, happy hour and dinner each day.  Their prices are moderate, with entree prices in the $14 to $30 range.  In 2021, 23% of sales were alcohol.  They could re-add breakfast to the mix. 

 

Through YTD April 30, 2023, their sales are 4% higher than last year at this time and annualized sales are tracking to over $1.2 million, and annualized SDE is on track to exceed $400,000 this year.

 

The business is being sold on a fully turnkey basis and is being offered because of the pending semi-retirement of the owner.
