    So the new owners may open on Sunday? I hated coming downtown always to find it closed.

    I assume the cost includes the secret recipe.

    The secret recipe is too much fish sauce.

    Consider they don't own the spot, that's all you are paying for.

    200 orders X $10 X 20 days = $40000/mth in revenue.

    That's what I was thinking. $1MM asking price for a recipe book and brand.. the latter of which is surely going to be devalued to some extent immediately after sale when the customers realize it changed hands.

    Valuing small businesses is notoriously difficult with an extremely illiquid pool of buyers.

    Especially in the food service space.

    The hail mary here for a buyer would be to leverage the brand for franchising, but I don't know if there's enough brand equity to make that viable...

    Edit - I hadn't read the part about franchising in the description... Great. Now I'm thinking like a REALTOR©

    So there was a second location on Stephen Ave in the mid-2000's (forget when it closed) and plans to franchise back then I believe. It had lineups out the door at lunch.

    I wonder why franchising didn't take off then? Too much work? 2008 GFC?

    If I bought there would have to be a clause that the current owners agree to make an appearance at new store openings, lol.

    I remember that. Was that a franchise location? Name was the same but not sure if related. I'm sure margins were super low especially back in mid 2000's b/c subs were $3.50 each and I'd get a half dozen at a time. I'm guessing margins aren't super high today either.
