TAMPA, FL — Beef ‘O’ Brady’s, a family sports pub franchise, recently debuted on the 2024 Franchise Times Top 400 list at No. 231. The Franchise Times Top 400 is the definitive ranking of the largest franchise systems in the U.S. based on global system sales.
“As we continue to expand, it’s truly an honor to be recognized alongside some of the largest and most successful franchise brands in the world,” said Chris Elliott, CEO of Beef ‘O’ Brady’s parent company, FSC Franchise Company. “This achievement is a testament to the dedication and hard work of our franchise partners, corporate team and loyal fan base, both in our established markets and those new markets that are quickly embracing our brand. We’re excited for the continued success and growth ahead.”
Franchise Times compiles its ranking of the 400 largest U.S. franchise systems by using both voluntary company reports and the latest Franchise Disclosure Documents (FDDs) to determine the systemwide sales of brands on a global scale. To be eligible for the list, companies must either be legally franchised and headquartered in the U.S. or have at least 10% of their total locations within the country. In addition, a minimum of 15% of the company’s total units must be franchised.
Beef ‘O’ Brady’s was founded in 1985 by Jim Mellody as a family-friendly, sports-themed restaurant with a focus on creating a warm and inviting atmosphere where friends and families could gather.
“It means a lot to see Beef ‘O’ Brady’s standing shoulder-to-shoulder alongside some of the largest and most successful franchise brands in the United States,” said Elliott. “At FSC, we’ve charted our own path with this distinct concept and it’s gratifying to see the impact we’re making.
