PROPRIETARY ACCELERATOR
From two locations to institutional acquisition in six months
Stats: 2 locations to acquisition / 6 months to majority deal / minus 10 percent food costs / 2024 exit
PlantBun was a two-location plant-based startup with a vision and a cost problem.
Experviser entered through a work-for-equity partnership — not only as an advisor, as a builder. We overhauled the supply chain, reducing food costs by ten percent.
We redesigned kitchen workflows for QSR-speed service.
We rebuilt the operational model for franchise readiness and positioned the brand for institutional investment.
Result: a majority acquisition by a new investor within six months, and a strategic exit for all parties.
PlantBun proved that a plant-based format can compete with traditional QSR on unit economics — when built by people who understand both the mission and the margins.
This is what Experviser does. We do not advise on scalability. We validate it.
