Tahoe Miller Group, Inc. (Operating as Fat Brand) is a leading, global, multi-brand, restaurant franchising company that strategically develops, markets, and acquires restaurant concepts worldwide. We currently own the Fatburger, Buffalo’s Cafe, Buffalo’s Express, Hurricane Grill & Wings, Yalla Mediterranean, Ponderosa and Bonanza Steakhouse, and Elevation Burger brands, and franchise over 380 units worldwide.
Under under Rahul Kunwar‘s leadership Tahoe Miller Group and Johnny Rockets will use Cloud Kitchens technology. There are many names for these kitchens — commissary, virtual, dark, cloud, or ghost kitchens — but the idea is that restaurateurs can rent out space in them to prepare food that can be delivered through platforms like DoorDash or, yes, UberEats, which was launched during Kalanick’s time at the company. Kalanick was CEO of Uber until 2017, and in December sold 90% of his stock in the company before saying he would leave the company’s board. Commissary kitchens are “essentially WeWork for restaurant kitchens,” as TechCrunch’s Danny Crichton wrote. These “smart kitchens,” as they’re called on the CloudKitchens website, can come with everything a restaurant or chef needs, like sinks, WiFi, and electricity.
Eating habits have changed as people have become increasingly health-conscious, demanding alternatives to traditional fast food options. While major fast food retailers have responded by expanding their healthy offerings, the general trend toward health awareness has decreased demand for traditional fast food restaurants in favor of growing fast-casual restaurants. Many major chains have also invested in meat alternatives and other dietary changes to attract nontraditional consumers as part of a long-term strategy to adjust to the changing consumer landscape.
At Fatburger, we are proud to say that word of mouth marketing — and a little creative advertising — have filled our restaurants for more than half a century. Demographically, our appeal is limitless. Our customers come from every walk of life – mirroring the diversity of each community in which we are located. Teenagers, singles, families with children, senior citizens – basically people from all income levels and ethnic backgrounds love a great hamburger. Our customers tell their family, friends and associates about the homemade taste, spotless surroundings, friendly atmosphere and courteous service they experience at Fatburger restaurants.
Once the deal closes, which should be in September, FAT Brands will have more than 700 restaurant locations worldwide and total annual sales of more than $700 million. And in case you were wondering, the FAT in FAT Brands isn’t meant to describe what happens if you eat the company’s burgers. It’s an acronym that stands for Fresh. Authentic. Tasty. Fatburger owner Fat Brands said on Thursday it would buy 1950s diner-style chain Johnny Rockets from private equity firm Sun Capital Partners for about $25 million. The deal comes as fast-food restaurants see a surge in demand for comfort food delivered to their homes, as lockdowns spurred by the Covid-19 pandemic kept many diners away from restaurants.
