Some areas of growth include:
- Retail: this has largely remained an untouched channel for us, as we've placed our focus in more profitable channels in food service and eCommerce to ensure the business would remain cashflow positive in its development phase. For the right buyer equipped with the proper resources, there is immense room for growth through retail distribution.

- Product development: leveraging lean manufacturing setup for quick iteration on seasonal flavors and new product sizes/formats. In testing a bulk SKU on Amazon, we saw rapid growth in that channel that can be repeated for more product-led growth.

- Optimize manufacturing: while our manufacturing setup leaves room for flexibility and rapid iteration, more efficiencies can be had with new equipment or a larger manufacturer to cut down on manufacturing costs and improve margins.

- Resources for Marketing: to date, the business has grown organically with minimal marketing spend (<10% of revenue all-time). Beginning to advertise the product in traditional channels, affiliate marketing, etc. would leave room for significant growth.

Facilities
The business leverages a co-manufacturer and doesn't own any real estate, equipment, etc. Assets include product formulas, branding, inventory, etc.
Competition
There is strong demand for our products and room to expand beyond into other snacking categories leveraging the established brand in a highly selective channel of foodservice. Our granola is consumed 3x more than the next granola in the tech offices we support and we have strong repeat purchase due to our delicious, on-trend recipes.
Growth & Expansion
See the description for a full breakdown of growth opportunities for the brand, but they include everything from retail expansion to operational optimization to increasing marketing efforts beyond organic channels. The business is currently operated just a few hours per week so stepping in full-time, adding to a larger organization, etc. would provide immediate growth opportunities for the company.

The business is currently operated in a part-time capacity by the founder, who will onboard the new owner however agreed upon in the transaction details. There is flexibility for short-term/long-term support & training.
Reason for Selling
