582 liquor and convenience stores in San Francisco, built from the off-sale license file plus tobacco retailer licenses. A store holding both, plus lottery, is the corner store everybody knows.

Convenience stores sell around 2.41x owner earnings; full package liquor stores closer to 3.4x because the license is scarce. This is the most family-owned trade on the list, and the sale trigger is almost always succession: nobody in the next generation wants the hours.

Public files don't carry inside sales, so most pages here show no range until the owner enters two numbers.
