Confidential first step
You can begin with high-level business information only. There is no need to upload financial statements or share sensitive materials to start the conversation.
Confidential Seller Outreach
Explore a confidential sale, recapitalization, or growth partnership with RTG.
RTG partners with restaurant and hospitality owners who are considering a transition, growth capital, operating support, or a broader platform opportunity.
A Thoughtful First Step
Built for owners who want a serious conversation without oversharing too early.
This page is designed to help restaurant owners begin a discreet conversation with RTG before sensitive materials, customer data, or detailed diligence requests ever come into play.
Founder-friendly conversations
Whether you are exploring a full transition, a recapitalization, or a growth partnership, RTG approaches early discussions with discretion and respect for the operator journey.
Restaurant-focused review
RTG reviews submissions through a restaurant and hospitality lens, with attention to operating realities, multi-unit complexity, and long-term platform fit.
How the Process Works
A measured process that starts light and becomes more detailed only when appropriate.
Most owners want to understand fit before opening their books. This intake is built around that reality.
-
Share basic business information
Start with ownership, footprint, timing, and a brief description of what you are considering.
-
RTG reviews for potential fit
We review the opportunity at a high level to determine whether it appears aligned with RTG's current focus.
-
Confidential introductory conversation
If there appears to be a fit, the next step is typically a discreet introductory conversation.
-
Sensitive materials only requested later, typically after appropriate confidentiality steps
Detailed diligence comes later in the process, not at the point of first contact.
You do not need to prepare formal deal materials to start the conversation.
Owners often begin with ranges, context, and broad goals. That is enough for an initial review. If there appears to be a fit, RTG can discuss next steps privately from there.
What is most helpful at this stage
Current footprint and geography
The number of open locations and where the business is based help frame the opportunity quickly.
High-level revenue and profitability ranges
Approximate figures are enough for a first review. Exact numbers can wait.
What you are considering and when
A sale, recapitalization, growth partnership, or operating support can each imply a different next conversation.
