Betty’s Burgers & Concrete Co. is an Australian fast food and casual dining burger restaurant chain owned by parent company Retail Zoo. Betty’s Burgers was formed in 2014 with its first store located in Noosa, Queensland. The company is currently under rapid expansion.[3] As of May 2024, there are 60 restaurants located throughout all states of mainland Australia and the Australian Capital Territory.

History

The chain was founded in 2014 in Noosa, Queensland by three entrepreneurs David Hales, Nik Rollison and Michael Tripp[4] after they saw an opening in the Sunshine Coast’s dining market. The restaurant had a franchisor request on the first day of operation.[5]

In 2017, the restaurant was acquired by Retail Zoo, the same parent company as Boost Juice.[6] Retail Zoo aims to open 12 to 15 restaurants each year until it reaches about 150 restaurants Australia-wide, which is three times more than its current presence to compete in the A$9 billion burger market.[7]

During the 2021 Mansfield earthquake, one of its restaurants located on Chapel Street, Melbourne suffered severe damage which caused the outlet to suspend business for two months while repair works took place.[8] The heritage brick building's top facade collapsed as a result of strong shaking and left debris across the road.[9] There were no recorded injuries.[10]
