We Sell Restaurants, the nation’s leading restaurant brokerage franchise brand,  announced today the signing of two franchise development agreements that will expand its footprint in key target markets throughout the Southeast.  This surge in franchise development reflects the brand’s growth strategy and is fueled by the ongoing success We Sell Restaurants has experienced over the past several years. This success, coupled with the continuous improvements on their proprietary platform, the Broker’s Operations and Sales System or BOSS, has attracted experienced multi-unit and single unit restaurant operators as well as those outside the industry, to join the growing brand.

As part of this development, We Sell Restaurants is entering the Charlotte, North Carolina market spearheaded by new franchisee Justin Scotto and his company, Carolina Restaurant Brokerage, LLC.  Scotto has signed an agreement to launch three locations throughout the region, specifically targeting Charlotte North Carolina, Rock Hill South Carolina and extending into the Carolinas over the coming years.  His operations are slated to begin in January of 2019.  Justin has extensive experience in the restaurant industry. He previously acted as a multi-unit developer of the Firehouse Subs franchise brand where he developed and operated as many as twelve units. As a Firehouse Subs multi-unit owner, Scotto served for seven years on the Firehouse Subs Board of Directors where he represented the views of franchisees nationwide.

“As a multi-unit developer of a fast casual brand for the past 16 years I’ve gained a wealth of knowledge in the restaurant industry. This experience will help me relate to future buyers and sellers. I’m looking forward to transferring this knowledge to the We Sell Restaurants brand. I reviewed other similar brands, but We Sell Restaurants proved to be the best fit for me because of their commitment and success towards getting the job done for buyers and sellers in the restaurant brokerage market. “

We Sell Restaurants also signed a franchise development agreement with David Whitcomb, President of DDT Holdings, Inc. who will bring a new location to Naples, Florida in January of 2019.  Whitcomb has more than a decade of experience in the full service and quick service segments.  He has owned and operated his own restaurant, served as a Culinary Director for multiple locations, and has degrees in Food Service Management and Culinary Arts.

“I chose We Sell Restaurants since it complements my experience and knowledge.  I’ve owned, and operated restaurants and I can’t think of a better way to stay engaged in the industry than as a Restaurant Broker for a premiere firm.  We Sell Restaurants has solid systems, training and flexibility. I am also highly confident in the well-rounded background and cross-industry experience of the founders. I see Naples as a thriving and dynamic restaurant industry currently underserved from a niche, exclusively restaurant, business broker perspective.”

Coupled with its ongoing management system innovation, We Sell Restaurants credits its strong alignment with the franchise industry and its resale focus with the brand’s ongoing strong performance. Franchisees of the We Sell Restaurants system strongly outperform their peers in the industry based on annual survey results published by Business Brokerage Press and BizBuySell.  The financial performance of their franchisees in their Item 19 disclosure at this link demonstrate strong six figure earnings in the first full year of operations.  For nearly 18 years, We Sell Restaurants has been the most innovative, technologically advanced and successful restaurant brokerage brand in the nation where they adhere to their mission to “Sell More Restaurants than Anyone Else. Period.”

With more restaurants for sale across 39 states than any other firm in the country, We Sell Restaurants is the restaurant brokerage leader in America.  The company is currently seeking single and multi-unit operators to join in the brand’s rapid expansion.
