Can FB Society work its magic once again with this fast-casual brand?

In this episode of Take-Away with Sam Oches, Sam talks with Tim Timbs, senior vice president of operations for fast casual brands at FB Society, the Dallas based group that’s currently parent to concepts like Whiskey Cake, Sixty Vines, and Haywire, and previously to major success stories like Twin Peaks and Velvet Taco. As lead for their fast-casual concepts, Tim is particularly responsible for the growth of Son of a Butcher, a slider concept that originated in FB Society’s hugely successful Legacy Hall. Tim joined the podcast to talk about how a portfolio group like FB Society tackles fast casual brand development and why a food hall like Legacy Hall was the perfect place to incubate a concept like Son of a Butcher.  In this conversation, you’ll find out why:Ingredient quality narrows the gap between casual and fast casual You can improve your scalability if you don’t commit to one kind of buildSliders are the hot new category because of the variety they provideOne of the most important things to avoid when expanding is putting your restaurants on an islandStrong supply chain relationships are critical to your expansion journey<br/>Have feedback or ideas for Take-Away?
