The cradle of fast food is... Wichita, Kansas? Indeed, the breeding ground for both White Castle and Pizza Hut is also the hometown for one of the most exciting fast-casual burger concepts around: Freddy's Frozen Custard & Steakburgers. The brand, launched in 2002 by Bill and Randy Simon and Scott Redler, was only supposed to be a family-friendly one-off in Wichita, but it quickly became a smash franchise success and has since grown to around 350 locations and nearly half a billion dollars in annual sales. In this conversation with QSR editor Sam Oches, Redler details Freddy's growth and how the company has modernized even as it serves a healthy dose of timeless Americana.QSR Magazine informationFacebook | Twitter | Instagram | LinkedInQSRmagazine.com Have feedback or interview suggestions?

A restaurant operator to the core, Scott loves the sights, sounds and smells of a well-run restaurant. Growing up in St. Louis, he got his start in the restaurant business at age 15 catering events for groups of two to 6000. Paying his way through college by managing a steakhouse, he earned a degree in restaurant and hotel management. Redler moved to Minneapolis and then Washington, DC, to manage a 5-star restaurant. Back in St. Louis, he launched his first restaurant as a sole proprietor—a quick-service Chinese food concept called Shanghai Charlie’s. After selling that, he moved back to DC to serve as Executive Vice-President for the American Café. Scott eventually moved to Wichita, KS, accepting the position of Executive Vice President of a local restaurant group. In 1997, Scott together with Bill Simon opened Timberline Steakhouse. In 2002, Redler again partnered with Bill Simon and his brother Randy to launch Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers. Freddy's based in Kansas, has grown to more than 340 locations at last tally, and the entire chain generated $474.7 million in system-wide sales last year, creating $21.3 million in revenue for the home office—about $10 million of that as profit.
