Retail Zoo is an Australian company that owns multiple major restaurant chains, including Boost Juice, Betty’s Burgers and Salsa's Fresh Mex Grill. It also previously owned the Hatch Chicken Shop and Cibo Espresso chains.
Valued at around half a billion dollars, it is a private company that has explored a public listing on at least two occasions, first exploring and then putting on pause the idea in 2019; before resuming its pursuit of an IPO again in 2022.
In 2023, Australian private equity firm Adamantem Capital acquired a majority stake in the company for $350 million.
