BurgerFi

BurgerFi International, Inc. is a fast-casual restaurant chain known for its gourmet, all-natural Angus beef burgers, hand-cut fries, hot dogs, and custard desserts. The company was founded in 2011 in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, Florida, with the vision of providing a premium burger experience that emphasizes quality ingredients and eco-friendly practices. Since its inception, BurgerFi has rapidly grown to become a significant player in the better-burger market in the United States.

In December 2020, BurgerFi went public through a merger with Opes Acquisition Corp., marking a pivotal moment in its history and enhancing its profile in the restaurant industry. A notable milestone in its expansion journey occurred in November 2021 when BurgerFi acquired Anthony’s Coal Fired Pizza & Wings. This acquisition allowed the company to diversify its offerings and expand its geographic reach as part of a multi-brand platform.

As of October 2025, BurgerFi operates approximately 118 locations across key states including Florida, Texas, Georgia, New York, and California. The brand is actively growing through both corporate and franchise development, with a focus on urban, suburban, and transit-oriented sites. This strategic expansion targets major metropolitan areas and high-traffic retail corridors, making BurgerFi a desirable tenant for landlords and developers.

BurgerFi's flexible store formats, such as freestanding restaurants and urban in-line spaces, cater to a variety of retail environments. Its commitment to sustainability and premium ingredients enhances its reputation as a reliable and attractive tenant. With ongoing expansion efforts and a multi-brand strategy, BurgerFi continues to strengthen its presence in the competitive fast-casual sector, offering opportunities for growth in diverse real estate markets.
