Marketing description
Northmarq is pleased to present an exclusive opportunity to acquire a portfolio of five Church's Chicken locations across the St. Louis metropolitan area. A single corporate guaranty stands behind all five locations. The master lease is guaranteed jointly and severally by the Church's Texas Chicken corporate parent. At $48,300 per unit, the portfolio's average rent runs roughly 63% below the St. Louis QSR average of $125,652, the same against the Missouri and national averages near $130,000, keeping rent coverage strong and the income protected well below replacement cost.
St. Louis is the 23rd largest metro in the United States with an MSA population home to over 2.8M, the largest in Missouri and the second largest in Illinois. The St. Louis metro economy is unusually diversified, spanning logistics, advanced manufacturing, financial services, bioscience, aerospace and defense, education, and health care. Twenty-two companies on the Fortune 1000, Forbes Global 2000, and Forbes' largest private companies list are headquartered here, including seven Fortune 500 firms. Most notably, Boeing named St. Louis the home of its Defense, Space & Security headquarters, and Centene, the region's largest company, leads the metro with over $194 billion in revenue as the only local firm in the Fortune 500's top 100.
