The situation

Barista Parlor closed three Nashville cafés — Germantown, Hillsboro Village, and Sylvan Supply — while its other locations kept operating. The lender directed the sale of the equipment from the three closed cafés and needed it done in an orderly, documented way.

We consolidated the contents of all three cafés at the former Germantown location and ran one auction. Every lot sold to the highest bidder regardless of price, and the lender received a documented settlement eight days after bidding closed.

What sold

  • Slayer 2-group and 3-group commercial espresso machines
  • Nuova Simonelli Mythos grinders
  • Yama cold brew coffee towers
  • True and Turbo Air glass-door refrigeration
  • Commercial coffee bar equipment and smallwares
  • Front-of-house fixtures from all three cafés

The result

Three cafés, one consolidated sale, one settlement to the lender. 133 registered bidders placed 3,067 bids on 62 lots, and the settlement was paid eight days after close.
