West Coast Ventures Group, owner and operator of fast casual dining concept Illegal Burger, has signed a letter of intent to acquire a new Illegal Burger restaurant in Denver, Colorado, US.

Established in 2013 by its founder and CEO Jim Nixon, Illegal Burger offers a wide range of menu items including hand-crafted burgers, chicken, salads and specialty desserts across the US.

West Coast Ventures Group CEO Jim Nixon said: “This is an exceptional opportunity to capture a dense white-collar day and evening population with high-income residential demographics.

“What is also very important to our model is that the location will provide 2000ft² of indoor seating and 350ft² of patio seating.”

“The new location sits between two nationally recognised hotels, Hilton and Residence Inn, with high-volume shopping and dining traffic.

“Sales in this location already exceeded $900,000 before conversion to the company’s Illegal Burger brand. What is also very important to our model is that the location will provide 2000ft² of indoor seating and 350ft² of patio seating.”

Led by restaurant entrepreneurs, West Coast Ventures Group currently owns and operates Illegal Burger and El Señor Sol restaurant concepts.
