Trendy Fast-casual Restaurants Increase Revenue Potential by Focusing on Improved Consumer Experience and Hospitality

PALM BEACH, Florida, October 24, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

Recent strong gains in the labor market on the back of a steady rise in wages will likely encourage consumers to dine out more. With these expectations in mind, restaurateurs are undertaking various sales and initiatives to enhance guest experiences and, in turn, increase revenue growth potential on hopes of attracting more customers. With recent IPO's, the newest players in the market, the increase in the demand of fast food in particular has introduced new concepts like 'take away' or eating better tasting and higher quality food on the run concept. Active in the market today includes: FAT Brands Inc. (NASDAQ: FAT), West Coast Ventures Group Corp. (OTC: WCVC), Shake Shack Inc. (NYSE: SHAK), Sonic Corp. (NASDAQ: SONC), Red Robin Gourmet Burgers, Inc., (NASDAQ: RRGB).

West Coast Ventures Group Corp. (OTC: WCVC), which wholly owns fast-casual dining concept ILLEGAL BURGER, has unveiled two new websites as part of a recent digital rebranding campaign for both companies. The new online portals support WCVC's mission to provide its entrepreneurs with the resources necessary to stand out in today's crowded digital marketplace. "By launching both websites in tandem, we continue to extend our reach to an ever-widening audience," said James Nixon, Chief Executive Officer of WCVC and ILLEGAL BURGER.

The Burger + Bar eatery's newly redesigned website offers customers quick and easy access to information about ILLEGAL BURGER's always-fresh ingredients, updated menu options, and location contact information. As part of the update, hungry patrons can now place convenient online orders at any of the brand's four Denver restaurants.

West Coast Ventures announced last week it has completed a reverse acquisition and now solely wholly owns and operates fast-casual dining concepts ILLEGAL BURGER and El Señor Sol. "We couldn't be more excited to move to the next step of the process with West Coast Ventures Group," said James Nixon, Chief Executive Officer of WCVC and ILLEGAL BURGER

"Becoming a public company is going to help propel us into a national brand, this reverse takeover will place us in an even stronger position to branch out into new markets." ILLEGAL BURGER, a fast-casual Burger + Bar dining concept, prides itself on its all-natural, never frozen, antibiotic and hormone free ingredients; homemade sauces; and fresh-baked buns. Every location includes a full bar and blends up adult milkshakes whirred to order. ILLEGAL BURGER is in line to expand into the national marketplace as a leader in the fast-casual dining sector. After this reverse acquisition, the combined company plans to raise enough equity to open new locations outside of Denver and intends to begin the process to become a franchisor of ILLEGAL BURGER restaurants in the near future.
