Strategic Growth in Restaurant Ventures

Andrew Smith, Managing Director & Co-Founder of The Savory Fund, joins us on the Dirt Dog Pod. Andrew spent the begining of his career in tech before being pulled in the resturaunt world by his wife in '08/'09. Since that change he dove in and never looked back starting the savory fund alongside his wife Shauna. The Savory Fund leverages their extensive experience in resturaunt operations to help emerging brands grow faster than they could on their own. A few notable brands that Savory has partnered with include, Swig, Mo' Bettahs, and Houston Hot Chicken.
