CoGoGo are delighted to present to the market an exciting opportunity to acquire a well-established and much-loved catering business - The Rhubarb Kitchen.
Bursting with personality, flavour and with a strong local following, this is not your average food business.
With market leading levels of turnover, this is the perfect acquisition for someone who wants to run their own food business for the first time (all the hard work and investment has already been taken care of), or for an established operator to add Rhubarb to a growing portfolio, caputing a huge ready-made marketing in the Peak District.
The owner, a serial entrepreneur and marketing expert, is moving on to a new project to review and reinvent another unrelated business. All operational procedures are set up and in place for Rhubarb, including maintenance, fire safety regulations and a 5-star food hygiene rating.
There is significant scope to further expand the Rhubarb brand. They have a huge branded gazebo (as part of the sale) to allow the new owner to run pop-ups at market towns or at music events, or even weddings. There is also scope to open as a full-time takeaway/evening Bistro/ Supper Clubs - all of which they have offered in the past and have always been sell-out events.
They have also run cookery courses for all kinds of clients (men wanting to learn to cook more, cooking for just one person, batch cooking, how to make a special evening meal (3 courses).
Another untapped market is home-cooked ready meals, made in the kitchen and chilled in the blast freezer, ready for customers to collect and heat for their evening meal, which is another revenue-generating possibility.

The Rhubarb Kitchen is in an extremely prominent position within Wirksworth town. Located near Ecclesbourne Valley Railway, there are always customers looking for a drink and a bite to eat when visiting the railway. The local independent cinema is also located on North End (the same road), and they have no plans to provide food or drink, which is another great untapped opportunity for growth.
The kitchen is considerable in size, fitted out with plenty of storage area, two high-end SMEG ovens, two dishwashers and a boiling water filter tap. There are also two high-spec fridge freezers, plus a high-end blast chiller worth over £2,000. There are no leases in place - everything is paid for. It is also beautiful in design.
