Surcheros Lands on Fast Casual’s Top 100 Movers & Shakers List

Debuts on prestigious list of most successful brands

ALPHARETTA, GA, UNITED STATES, June 18, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Surcheros, a community favorite rooted in bold flavors with Southern hospitality, caps off a major growth year with another milestone. Fast Casual Magazine recently named the Georgia-based Fresh-Mex company to its 2025 Top 100 Movers & Shakers list. Surcheros debuted at #50, marking the brand’s first appearance on the annual list, which highlights standout brands driving industry innovation, growth, and customer experience through technology and trendsetting strategies.

“We feel incredibly honored to receive this recognition from Fast Casual and to stand alongside other brands that continue pushing the industry forward with innovation and excellence,” said Luke Christian, Founder & CEO of Surcheros. “In 2024, our loyal customers, dedicated team members, and corporate and franchise partners drove steady restaurant growth and strong revenue gains. With a healthy development pipeline and a shared vision, we broke into new markets and built momentum that we plan to carry into future expansion.”

Surcheros earned its place by accelerating both franchise and company-owned locations throughout the Southeast. In 2024, experienced multi-unit operators helped accelerate growth, while the brand streamlined the build-out process and strengthened local marketing support. These efforts reflect Surcheros’ commitment to thoughtful expansion, operational excellence, and exceptional guest experiences, which align with the values celebrated by this year’s Fast Casual Top 100 honorees.

Surcheros continues advancing its growth strategy with upcoming locations across the Southeast. The brand recently celebrated a grand opening in Bainbridge, Georgia, and has plans for additional openings in the state, as well as Tennessee, South Carolina, and Florida. These openings form part of a broader plan targeting high-potential Southeastern markets where demand for fresh, customizable Tex-Mex continues to rise.
