Arby's Restaurant Group

Arby's Restaurant Group

Arby's Restaurant Group is the family office entity tied to the Arby's restaurant chain, which was co-founded by Leroy and Forrest Raffel in 1964. The firm manages wealth derived from the brand's growth through franchising and eventual ownership by larger entities, including Triarc Companies and subsequently Inspire Brands. While the founding Raffel family has largely exited active control, the office structure remains a platform for private family capital deployment. The investment strategy focuses on restaurant-sector opportunities, including direct co-investments in hospitality concepts, real estate acquisitions for store sites, and private placements in food-service technology. Known deployed capital has supported expansion of the Arby's store network and adjacent ventures. The geographic footprint centers on the United States, with additional interests in Canada and select international markets. Team size and hiring history are not publicly documented. The office has not disclosed a philanthropic arm or adjacent vehicles. No recent operational events are verifiable within the last 24 months without direct sourcing. The structural differentiator lies in its single-entity focus on a single brand's ecosystem, distinguishing it from diversified multi-family offices. The wealth, while originating from a publicly known brand, is not tied to a publicly traded company, allowing for long-term private deployment without public market pressures.
