Cook

Flynn Group, founded by Greg Flynn, began its journey in 1999 with the acquisition of eight Applebee's locations. Over the next two decades, the company experienced substantial growth by building new stores and acquiring other franchise operators, establishing itself as the largest Applebee's franchisee in the world. This remarkable foundation has enabled Flynn Group to expand its portfolio beyond Applebee's, spanning different brands, countries, and industries. Today, Flynn Group boasts over 460 Applebee's restaurants across 24 states and owns seven premier brands. These include iconic and diverse food and fitness franchises such as Arby's, Panera Bread, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, Wendy's, and Planet Fitness. The organization's mission is to be the premier operator within each of these brands by focusing on core values: caring genuinely for people, playing like a champion, and winning as one united team.
