If you're looking for an affordable side business with the potential to generate additional income, this turnkey kettle corn operation could be exactly what you're looking for.
I have owned this kettle corn booth since 2021 and have been involved in the food truck and mobile food industry since 2014. All of the equipment was purchased new, and the booth has been well maintained. Unfortunately, due to my full-time job and several other projects, I haven't had the time to participate in events this year.
The business is completely set up and ready to go, allowing the new owner to step in and start producing and selling kettle corn immediately.
Prior to this year, I regularly participated in festivals, fairs, car shows, and other events throughout Washington State. The business has been established with the equipment and knowledge necessary to operate successfully at these types of events.
More Than Just the Equipment!
I'm not simply selling you the booth with equipment and sending you on your way. Included with the purchase is my experience and guidance to help you get started successfully.
I'll walk you through:
Finding and applying for shows and events
Insurance requirements
Permits and licensing
Booth setup and breakdown
Event preparation and logistics
Product preparation and production
Techniques I've developed for producing a quality product efficiently
Tips for maximizing sales at events
I'm also willing to attend your first event with you and personally show you how I set up, operate the booth, and produce the kettle corn.
Established Supplier Relationship:
I am currently a Washington State dealer for Amish County Popcorn products, and that dealer relationship can be transferred to the new owner upon purchase, subject to the supplier's approval and transfer requirements.
This is a great opportunity for someone looking for a turnkey, relatively low-cost side business without having to start completely from scratch. You get the equipment, established supplier relationship, operational knowledge, and hands-on training needed to get up and running.
If you are interested and a serious buyer, we can set up a time to look and run equipment.
