Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers Tenant Overview

Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers is a fast-casual restaurant chain specializing in made-to-order steakburgers, Vienna all-beef hot dogs, shoestring French fries, and house-churned frozen custard. The Wichita, KS-based company was founded in 2002 by brothers Bill & Randy Simon along with their close friend and business partner Scott Redler. They named the restaurant after Freddy Simon, a World War II veteran and Purple Heart and Bronze Start recipient.

Freddy’s is a privately-owned and family-oriented company with a dedication to hospitality that extends far beyond their guests. They are consistently recognized for their contribution to their communities, veterans, and the restaurant industry.

Today, Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers operates approximately 450 locations across 38 states in the U.S. and is continuing to expand. Most of their locations are operated by franchisees. In March 2021, Thompson Street Capital Partners, a private equity firm based in St. Louis, acquired Freddy’s. TSCP invests in founder-led middle market businesses, including more than 150 companies in the health care and life science services, software and technology services and business services and engineered products sectors.
