Opportunity Overview
An established East Bay specialty-food production and retail platform is available as an asset sale. The offering combines a recognized local brand, proprietary recipes, installed food-production infrastructure, direct customer access and a streamlined current operating team. Inventory will be counted and addressed separately at closing.
Business Highlights
• Artisan sausage and related protein products supported by proprietary recipes and established production methods.
• Complementary prepared foods include bolognese sauce and vodka cream sauce.

• Current production is approximately 400–500 pounds per week, with seller-reported installed capacity materially above current utilization.
