The “Best Dang Biscuit” concept is recognized as ‘the next big thing’ in the quick-service breakfast landscape
Durham, NC (
Rise Southern Biscuits & Righteous Chicken, the nation’s fastest growing biscuits and fried chicken concept, was named to
QSR magazine’s 40/40 List, a signature report produced annually by the leading industry publication. Now in its fifth year, the 40/40 List highlights 40 emerging limited-service restaurant companies with fewer than 40 locations that have potential to become the next big thing.
“The better-breakfast category remains largely untapped, with plenty of space between coffee-and-doughnut concepts and full-service breakfast-and-brunch joints,” says Sam Oches, editorial director of Food News Media, publisher of QSR. “Rise has a great opportunity to fill that void, serving premium breakfast options quickly to customers on the go. There will no doubt be pent-up demand for that kind of business after the pandemic, which is one of the reasons why we included Rise on the 40/40 List. Its potential is huge.”
