Buy a Go Burrito Franchise

Go Burrito! is a fast-casual restaurant concept built around fresh, California-style burritos served in a relaxed, beach-themed “burrito hangout.” Founded in 2013 in Salisbury, North Carolina, and franchising since 2016, the brand operates under parent company Go Ventures, Inc. Guests build customizable burritos, bowls, quesadillas and salads from more than 20 fresh, never-frozen ingredients, alongside house-made salsas, guacamole and queso.

What sets the concept apart is its dual-daypart model: a quick-service burrito menu by day and a full-service bar by night. Each location pairs the food program with a RumBar serving craft beer, rum cocktails and margaritas, plus evening draws such as karaoke, live music and trivia, blending fast-casual lunch traffic with bar and nightlife revenue under one roof.

Go Burrito remains an emerging, regional system, with company and franchised locations across North Carolina, Missouri, Tennessee and Florida. The brand positions itself toward first-time franchisees and multi-unit operators seeking a differentiated alternative to standardized national burrito chains.

Why buy a Go Burrito Franchise?

Buying a Go Burrito franchise offers entry into the popular fast-casual Mexican category with a concept that stands apart from menu-only competitors. The combined burrito-and-bar format gives operators two revenue streams from a single location, capturing daytime food sales and evening bar traffic that volume-led quick-service rivals typically cannot.

The brand leans on a recognizable, fun atmosphere and a fresh-ingredient food program to build repeat local traffic, and franchisees gain access to established suppliers and operating systems rather than building a concept from scratch. As an emerging system, Go Burrito gives earlier operators the chance to secure markets before the brand is widely established.

Go Burrito – Additional  Information

  1. Training & Support

    Go Burrito's training combines structured classroom and on-the-job phases, reported as 95 hours of classroom training and 140 hours of on-the-job training. New owners move through a milestone-driven Quick Start programme over four to six weeks, five days of Fundamentals classroom training with industry experts, 14 days of hands-on Practical Training, and Onsite training where the franchisor's team works in the franchisee's own kitchen. Ongoing marketing and operational support continue after opening. Resale buyers should confirm with Go Ventures what onboarding and transfer training is provided to incoming owners and existing staff.

  2. Ideal Owner

    Go Burrito suits hands-on, operations-led owners who enjoy a fast-paced, people-driven hospitality environment. Restaurant or multi-unit experience is helpful, since each location runs both a quick-service food line and a full bar with evening programming. Owners should be comfortable hiring, training and managing front-of-house and kitchen staff, executing local marketing, and maintaining the social, community-focused atmosphere the brand is known for. The model favours engaged operators willing to invest hands-on time, particularly through the ramp-up period.

  3. Recognition & Awards

    Go Burrito's fresh, house-made salsas and food program have earned recognition in local and regional contests, and the concept has drawn coverage from restaurant and franchising outlets including QSR Magazine, Nation's Restaurant News and Fast Casual. As an emerging regional brand, it is better known for its distinctive burrito-and-bar concept and loyal local following than for national franchise awards. For resale buyers, brand-level recognition should be weighed alongside the specific territory's reputation, local reviews and community visibility.

  4. Industry / Market

    Go Burrito operates in the US fast-casual restaurant segment, where Mexican-inspired food is consistently among the most popular categories. The US fast-casual market is projected to grow by roughly $84.5 billion between 2024 and 2029 (Technavio), supported by demand for fresh, customizable and convenient meals. Go Burrito's added bar and nightlife component also taps local evening and social spending. For resale buyers, category momentum matters less than a specific unit's local competition, foot traffic and the balance of its food and bar revenue.
