Source: RestaurantData U.S. restaurant-location research. Corporate, regional and franchisee headquarters are excluded. The first two windows use archived development records; later windows combine development and opening-year research, counting each address once at its earliest included dated evidence. Signal and state bands are rounded down. They do not represent complete opening totals, currently operating units or net growth.
The latest included development report is April Week 3, 2024. Opening-year research extends the later segment through 2026. The six examples use their stated date basis. Development reports can describe planned restaurants. Verification dates are not opening dates, and a historical record does not establish present operating status.
Source availability varies across jurisdictions and years. Wider research coverage in the dotted segment should be considered when comparing periods. The curve uses an illustrative vertical scale specific to this profile. Unresolved opening years are not used to assign opening dates; gaps do not by themselves establish a pause or contraction.

The Restaurant Enterprise Index focuses primarily on companies with a substantial role in restaurant operations. Investment firms, financial sponsors, and other ownership partners are generally not included unless they also play a meaningful operating role; an otherwise qualifying entity may also be omitted when sufficient reliable information is unavailable.
The ownership hierarchy follows the entity structure from the bottom up, showing the profiled entity in relation to its parent organizations, including its ultimate parent. When the entity owns or operates concepts beneath it, up to three are displayed.
