The Restaurant Market is Worth $13.9 Billion.
Whether you are a chef, home cook or entrepreneur looking for your next big move, buying a restaurant for sale could be a great option.
Whilst the growth of the restaurant industry has remained steady over the past five years we are seeing a re-awakening of the hospitality industry after the difficult covid-lockdown periods. With over 2,000 restaurants for sale, there are some great quality establishments ready to take your career to the next level.
After watching the recent episodes of 'Kitchen Nightmares' I have to tell you, it's tempting to find a run-down restaurant for sale, find its faults and turn it around. What a project! It's like home renovations, but next level. Living in Sydney I think we see all types of cuisines, everything from high-end culinary dining experiences, to food trucks thriving at 3 am. There's room for everyone, you just have to create great food and a unique experience that keeps the dinners coming back.
In 2022, the restaurant industry, measured by revenue, is worth $13.9 billion. This is a big market and there are a lot of restauranteurs wanting a piece of the pie. Whether you're looking at a small eatery with just a few tables to a large location housing multiple tables and a large team of chefs, cooks and waiters there are opportunities to be had.
Restaurants can be big money earners, we see listings with earnings like this established restaurant in Melbourne currently taking $145,000 per week and running under semi-management. To a $3,000,000 dollar franchise arriving from China with robot services and a million dollar fit out. Restaurants can be very successful businesses to own if managed properly and catering to their clients.
We take a look at some of the more popular restaurants for sale under the $400,000 price point.
