Not your typical broker. (Not your typical clients.) Little did Will know when he graduated from Occidental College in Diplomacy/World Affairs, that he'd be negotiating for restaurant clients all over the world.
After co-founding his own chain of quick-serve gourmet sausage eateries, World Links , he developed an appetite for growing other brands. So, in addition to being the "go-to guy" for restaurant real estate in Los Angeles, he's now a global consultant too.
Will's passion for restaurants began as a kid growing up in San Francisco. But these days, he can tell you where to eat just about anywhere in the world.
Site selection is just the beginning.
There's a reason that so many chefs, start-ups and established restaurant groups trust Will's instincts. And why developers and landlords seek his expert advice. Besides locations, locations, locations, The Knox Company offers support in concept development, negotiating, fund-raising and trouble-shooting.
Will's not just in it for the deal. His deal is building relationships. He's got connections to the best of the best. Restaurant architects. Lawyers. Accountants. Designers. Operations. Kitchen specialists. And even a dedicated branding group.
Whether you're creating one restaurant or growing a brand, Will's got an "in" to the best sites and all the right ingredients.
"Will's expertise proved invaluable to our group (Batali & Bastianich Hospitality Group) securing the best possible locations for our expansion to the west coast, and was essential to our success"
