(“NRDP II”) with total investor limited partner commitments of $104 million secured over the past four months, exceeding the fund’s target of $100 million.NRD focuses on companies specializing in franchised and multi-location business models. With NRDP II, the firm will continue its strategy of investing in brands that offer superior products/services and compelling unit economics, and maximizing their potential through the franchise business model. As NRD looks to invest NRDP II, it will continue to invest in domestic and international restaurant concepts, as well as new and emerging verticals such as healthcare franchising, in order to take advantage of important future trends.“We are extremely pleased at how quickly we were able to raise this fund as it is a testament to the confidence our limited partners have in our unique investment philosophy. We greatly appreciate the continued support from our Fund I investors – 91 percent of whom have also invested in Fund II, many with significantly higher commitments,” said Aziz Hashim, Managing Partner of NRD. “We are also delighted to welcome a number of new investors to Fund II. In fact, interest has been so great that the fund is oversubscribed and has a waiting list of additional interested investors.” Hashim continued: “With our operating expertise, wide network of franchisees and partnership approach to interacting with our portfolio companies, we have the unique ability to enable accelerated, but responsible, growth for brands. We look forward to making collaborative equity investments to enhance our portfolio and create opportunities for entrepreneurs through franchising.”NRD has thus far acquired two multi-location franchise brands, Frisch’s Big Boy and Fuzzy’s Taco Shop, which have generated $450 million in annual system revenues from 220 locations in 12 states.
