FREEBIRDS WORLD BURRITO
The 25-year old FREEBIRDS World Burrito chain was acquired when it had a restaurant count in the teens. Under the RareOne leadership, the brand was revitalized and grew to over 100 restaurants in five years.

We recognized the additional financial potential in Boston’s “Most Popular” steakhouse, Abe & Louie’s. (ZAGAT) After acquiring the brand along with Joe’s American Bar & Grill, Coach Grill and Atlantic Fish Company in 2011, we were able to increase cash flow substantially within two years.
