Multi-Unit Restaurants: How To Go From 2 to 5 Locations

Restaurant Growth Accelerator: More Profit, More Locations, And More Time With Your Family

Struggling to scale your restaurant from one to three or more locations?

Discover the exact systems, structure, and mindset shifts that every successful multi-unit restaurant owner must master.
With these new insights, you’ll understand how to build a sustainable, profitable restaurant operation with proper restaurant operations systems, a defined leadership structure, and a CEO-level strategy.
In this episode, Andrew Scott (20-year restaurant owner) and Nathan (regional manager overseeing 60+ million in revenue) share the structural changes that separate thriving multi-unit restaurant management operations from those that collapse under their own weight.
They expose why the skills that made you successful with one location will actually sabotage your growth - along with the exact management systems, compensation structures, and depth-building strategies that create scalable restaurant empires.
You'll learn how to shift from being an operator to becoming a restaurant CEO, develop regional leadership roles, and implement replicable systems that drive consistent results.
Whether you're in fast casual or full-service, this is your roadmap to scaling a restaurant business effectively.
