Why Off the Grill Franchising?
Uniquely Positioned for High GrowthWith home meal replacement continuing to grow and meal delivery increasing at three times the pace of dine-in, Off The Grill is uniquely positioned to handle rapid growth and plans to continue building locations to meet market needs. Streamlined preparation, cooking, payment and delivery address the demands of today's time-stressed consumers for fast, convenient service. These operations require a smaller facility than that of a full service restaurant. The result is lower startup costs and higher output per square foot, which makes investments potentially more attractive.
Industry Overview: What the Experts Have to Say
The National Restaurant Association projects revenues in the restaurant industry to grow from $408 billion to $577 billion by 2010, with home meal replacement/delivery noted as one of the hottest sectors.
Technomic Consultants stated that take-out and delivery sales are growing three times faster than on-premise dining. They also reported that take-out and delivery, and food-to-go sales are expected to rise to $195 billion by 2007.
