About this opportunity

Opening a Royal Stacks burger shop in Thomastown, Victoria, would be a smart business move for several reasons:

1. High-Density Population & Growth

Thomastown is part of Melbourne’s northern suburbs, an area experiencing rapid population growth. With a mix of families, young professionals, and blue-collar workers, there’s a large and diverse customer base that enjoys eating out.  Enquire here.

2. Strong Demand for Casual Dining

The area has a strong multicultural food scene, but there’s still room for high-quality, specialty burger options. A well-positioned burger shop could tap into the demand for casual and takeaway dining.

3. Industrial & Commercial Hub

Thomastown is home to many factories, warehouses, and businesses, meaning a steady flow of workers looking for quick, satisfying meals during lunch breaks and after work.

4. Lower Business Costs Compared to Inner Melbourne

Rent and operating costs in Thomastown are generally more affordable than in Melbourne’s CBD or inner suburbs, allowing for higher profit margins while still serving a large customer base.

5. Family-Oriented Community

With many families in the area, a burger shop offering family meal deals, kid-friendly options, and a welcoming atmosphere would do well.

6. Room for Innovation & Differentiation

While fast-food chains exist in the area, a unique, high-quality Royal Stacks burger shop offering gourmet options,  creative flavours and a fun attitude could stand out and attract loyal customers.

8. Potential for Late-Night & Takeaway Success

Thomastown has a strong takeaway and late-night food culture. A burger shop with delivery options and extended hours could capitalize on this demand.

The investment for a typical Royal Stacks restaurant ranges from $450,000 to $700,000, which includes a premium fit-out, top-tier kitchen equipment and a space designed to deliver the signature Royal Stacks experience.
