Fried chicken food chain Popeyes has partnered with TDR Capital to drive their UK expansion.
The US firm opened their first UK restaurant in London back in 2021 and has now expanded to 27 locations – including its first drive through site in Rotherham which “broke multiple sale records” across their worldwide business.
Tom Crowley, Chief Executive at Popeyes, said: “We have a significant and strong pipeline of restaurants with landlords across the country recognising the opportunity of working with us and actively approaching us with good incentives. This investment allows us to fully capitalise on these opportunities. TDR will bring its extensive experience to our business and we look forward to partnering with the team alongside our current owners Ring International Holdings on the next phase of growth for Popeyes UK.”
Tom Mitchell, managing partner at TDR Capital, said the “significant demand” for Popeyes made it an “exciting, long-term investment opportunity” for the group.
