The company’s core strategy centers on acquiring, developing and supporting emerging foodservice concepts, leveraging shared services and operational best practices to drive system-wide growth and profitability. Generation Next focuses on building a diversified portfolio of complementary brands that span categories such as pizza, coffee, frozen desserts and healthy fast-casual offerings.

Founded in 2018 and headquartered in Houston, Texas, Generation Next has pursued a roll-up strategy, targeting under-penetrated regional concepts with strong unit-level economics and expansion potential. The company has executed strategic acquisitions and master-franchise agreements to broaden its footprint into select U.S. markets and explore opportunities in Canada. This approach is designed to stimulate same-store sales growth, streamline back-office operations and accelerate net unit growth through both corporate and franchise avenues.
Generation Next is led by a management team with extensive experience in restaurant franchising, private equity and capital markets. The leadership group draws on decades of operational expertise and transactional know-how to identify attractive acquisition targets, negotiate franchise partnerships and drive margin enhancement initiatives. Together, they aim to position Generation Next as a leading consolidator in the fast-casual franchise space.
