This is a turnkey opportunity to acquire four operating restaurant units across two locations: two Jon Smith Subs franchises and two co-located “The Meaner Wiener” ghost kitchens. Both brands are currently operating out of leased spaces in Harrogate, TN and Middlesboro, KY — only 7 miles apart, making management efficient and localized.

Key Highlights:

• Jon Smith Subs: Nationally recognized brand offering grilled and deli subs.
• The Meaner Wiener: Proprietary ghost kitchen model focused on gourmet hot dogs and fast-casual items. Operates from the same kitchens as Jon Smith Subs, sharing ingredients to reduce food costs and waste.
• Strong Local Presence: Both units are positioned off US Hwy 25E, a major regional route serving as an I-75 alternative. Significant traffic from Lincoln Memorial University, local factories, and regional sports teams boosts weekday and seasonal sales.

Assets Included:

• Equipment and FF&E valued at $200,000
• Inventory (~$7,500)
• POS system (Toast)
• 2012 Honda CR-V used for local delivery (averaging $300–$500/day in sales)

1. Drive-Thru at Middlesboro + Indoor and patio seating at both units
2. 12 trained employees across locations
3. No direct competition in premium subs or gourmet hot dogs locally

Growth Potential:

• Option to assume multi-unit development rights for Jon Smith Subs
• The Meaner Wiener brand can be developed into its own standalone franchise or expanded through additional ghost kitchen units

Lease Info:

• Combined building space: 2,700 SF
• Lease through July 2028

Reason for Sale:

• Owner is exiting to focus on a separate career in the electronics industry.

1. Financing: Buyer to secure their own financing.
2. Training & Transition: Full support from franchisor and current owner will be provided to ensure smooth handoff.
