I’ve truly enjoyed working with Scott and Richard. Over time, that relationship has grown beyond just business—we consider them trusted partners and good friends, and it’s always a pleasure collaborating with them. We would absolutely recommend FDR to manufacturers looking for a strategic partner that understands how to drive real, scalable growth.

I'd absolutely recommend other brands work with FDR. They helped Buca Di Beppo innovate new, craveable menu items that are easy to execute. Plus, they treat their clients as a true business partner.

I’ve partnered with FDR in my current role as well as in previous roles, and they’ve proven their value across multiple business contexts. I’ve even relied on them to build an entire concept and menu from the ground up. Their versatility and ability to support a wide range of business needs make them a strong partner for any brand.

The FDR team has earned our trust through years of good work. Compared to other partners we've had, they need less input and hand-holding from us to do their job, and thanks to their relationships and industry expertise, we've gotten to have conversations and walk through doors we had a hard time getting into before. I would certainly recommend FDR.

In 2014, we sold our Baltimore production facility, part of which housed our Culinary Innovation Center. As a result, we needed a Research & Development facility and partner we could rely on. The FDR team is a great fit. They are buttoned up, professional, and understand the club business well.
