TGI Fridays

  • Iconic brand in casual dining and bar‑grill format
  • Operated in 55+ countries with over 600 restaurants globally
  • Franchise term: 10 years, with two possible 5‑year renewals

Founded in 1965 in New York, TGI Fridays quickly became one of the first casual-dining brands, famous for its Americana vibe, cocktails, ribs, and communal atmosphere. Over decades, it expanded globally—peaking at nearly 600 U.S. locations and $2B in revenue by the early 2000s.

 

Current Franchise Strategy

TGI Fridays is undergoing a strategic transformation:

  • Defranchising and refranchising: consolidating underperforming or company-owned units, then transitioning them to qualified franchisees.
  • Focus on experienced F&B operators capable of executing store reimaging and consistent brand operations.
  • International master development deals particularly in fast-growing Asia and Middle Eastern cities.
