Since Sanjay and Neal bought Fosters Freeze and took over corporate management, sales have been up 10-15% each year for each of my stores- almost an 80% increase in sales over the past 8 years!

Why Now?
Is it wise to invest in the restaurant industry right now? After all, statewide shutdowns due to COVID-19 forced dine-in restaurants to close their doors for months. That’s exactly why a concept like Fosters Freeze makes the most sense now and in the future.
Our model is built upon walk-up and drive-thru service, making Fosters Freeze naturally equipped to handle increased customer demand in these areas. We remained fully operational during lockdown- and actually saw a system-wide sales increase over the second quarter of 2020!
Quick service restaurants with walk-up or drive-thru options, like those that have always been part of the Fosters Freeze model, will continue to be on the rise in the near future. Since industry experts estimate that ability to provide contact-free food service will become more important in the coming years, we are uniquely positioned to fit consumers’ needs in this ‘new normal.’
