Investment Overview
This investment offering presents the opportunity to acquire a free-standing Popeyes restaurant located north of Atlanta in Smyrna, Georgia, within the highly desirable Cobb County submarket of metro Atlanta. The property is leased to C&M Foods Group LLC, which acquired a 14-unit Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen portfolio across Georgia and is backed by experienced multi-unit franchise operators with extensive restaurant and real estate experience. The long-term absolute NNN lease provides passive income with no landlord responsibilities.
The lease commenced in 2013 with an initial 20-year term and includes three x five-year renewal options. Rental increases occur every five (5) years, including during the option periods, providing built-in income growth over the life of the lease.
