Burger and Sauce to open new site in Wolverhampton
Despite being founded during the pandemic, the brand’s first restaurant generated £1.5m in its first year.
Burger and Sauce has announced the opening of its new site in Wolverhampton town centre this week.
Saadiya Nawaz will run the restaurant with the help of around 20 new full and part time staff.
Nawaz, who has a degree in law, is currently pursuing her Masters Degree in Law and was looking for a business to run while she completes her course.
Despite being founded during the pandemic, the brand’s first restaurant generated £1.5m in its first year.
The brand currently sits in locations across the Midlands including The Bull Ring, Castle Vale, Alum Rock, Kings Heath, Walsall, Nottingham, Derby, West Bromwich, Leicester, Sutton Coldfield and Bearwood Road in Birmingham.
Nawaaz said: “My family are in food and so for me to launch a fresh project made sense. I love the burgers which are all made to order. They taste great and are incredibly popular.
“The brand brings a freshness to the market which is just not found with other fast-food outlets. It is this freshness which has spurred the growth in demand and that makes the franchise opportunity so exciting. There is a lot of potential for the future.I have previously worked in the food industry so I also value the simplicity of the operation.”
She added: “The menu is uncluttered, and this makes preparation and work in the kitchen straight forward. It’s all backed up by Burger & Sauce’s tech system where each workstation has its own screen. This means everyone knows who’s doing what. It makes for a happy team and happy customers. I am now looking forward to building the business and Burger and Sauce becoming the household name for fresh burgers in Wolverhampton.”
