    About Back Yard Burgers

    What started as a premium quality burger sold in a grocery store in Cleveland, Mississippi in 1987 quickly caught fire. Lattimore "Lattie” Michael realized he had a recipe for success and thus opened the first Back Yard Burgers drive-thru restaurant. Customers flocked to it, eating up the fresh-grilled burgers, great conversation and the neighborly feel that reminded them of their backyard cookouts. A year later, Back Yard Burgers opened up in Tennessee and Florida. And the rest is delicious history.

    About PINCHO

    "Pincho
    Pincho is an elevated fast-casual Latin grill concept. We’re a concept that was born from a passion for food and is ready to grow to the next level. We’re a modern-day burger and kebab joint, and we haven’t seen any other new franchise opportunity out there doing things quite like us.
    “There’s nobody else like us in the U.S.,” says CEO and Co-Founder Otto Othman. “I’m not sure there’s anybody else like us anywhere that is serving up these kinds of meals influenced by iconic Latin street food and Latin American dishes. You wrap all that up into a concept that has fantastic economics, and you have something truly unique.”

    The total investment necessary to begin operation of a Pincho franchise under a franchise agreement is $463,055 - $655,500. This includes $30,000 that must be paid to the Franchisor or affiliate.
    The total investment necessary to begin operation of a Pincho franchise for the first restaurant if you sign an Area Development Agreement, which requires a minimum development of 3 Pincho Restaurants, is $523,055 - $715,500. This includes $90,000 that must be paid to the Franchisor or affiliate. If you and the franchisor agree to the development of more than 3 Pincho Restaurants, then your initial total investment for the first restaurant will increase by the number of additional Restaurants to be opened under the Area Development Agreement, multiplied by $30,000.
