Gordon Ramsay Restaurants has announced a major step in its global growth strategy by completing its Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) in compliance with US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) regulations.
This milestone enables the business to actively seek franchise partners to expand two of its popular casual dining brands, Gordon Ramsay Fish & Chips and Gordon Ramsay Street Pizza, across the United States.

The group, which currently operates 94 owned and licensed restaurants worldwide, is making the US a key focus for its franchising efforts.
With a strong franchising culture and vast market potential, the US is poised to play a central role in the company’s expansion plan.
Traditionally, the group has relied on owned or licensed restaurants, such as its prominent partnership with Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. However, franchising now represents an exciting new chapter for the business.

From The CEO
From a Press Release:
Andy Wenlock, CEO of Gordon Ramsay Restaurants, stated, “We have been operating owned and licensed restaurants in North America for many years, where we currently have 35 restaurants. Franchising is the next natural step in a market where Gordon has a clear fan base, and both Gordon and I have ambitions to expand the business. We have an established management team and infrastructure in North America to support future growth, and we are now looking for partners who want to deliver a true Gordon Ramsay experience.”
Suffice to say, this marks an exciting opportunity for aspiring franchise owners who want to be part of the Gordon Ramsay brand’s continued success.
