From the administrators' statement
The Company was incorporated on 3 December 2004 and commenced trading from its first restaurant at Brindley Place, Birmingham, in 2006. The business was founded by the Sargeant brothers, being Matthew, Richard and Christopher, all of whom are directors and members of the Company. The Company's mission was to look after every member of its restaurant staff, whilst ensuring all customers had the best possible experience when dining in each of its restaurants.
The initial restaurant opening in Birmingham was the first of its kind in the area, with the Company specialising in offering customers burgers made by hand in the restaurant, every day, with fresh produce and a choice of over 40 different burger varieties. The ingredients were sourced from the best farmers and producers in order to maintain the quality of the Company's food.
The initial strategy was to open new restaurants in the Midlands, before opening further restaurants in the north of England. Within the first year of trading, the Company opened a second restaurant and plans were already in place to open new restaurants in the Midlands area.
