Congratulations! You have opened your first restaurant and are now in a position to consider expanding your brand and vision. This is a critical step and must be well calculated to ensure the success of the new unit as well as the protection of the first. There are so many variables to consider and so much riding on each decision.  You must to do everything possible to ensure your brand continues to succeed as the business changes.

Most often, single unit restaurant owners become successful by working the business daily and diligently. In a one unit environment, great operators are generally able to “muscle through” anything thrown their way.  The predicament comes when the success of the business allows you to think about growth. Since the operating owner cannot be in more than one place at a time, it is critical to establish systems and processes that will closely resemble the operating standards that made restaurant number one a success.  In short, restaurant growth requires a dynamic shift in the operator’s mindset and skill set.

At BarFly, we have developed, opened and managed several concepts that have grown into successful multi-unit operations. As you prepare to grow your own concept we will be there with you every step of the way.
