MEMBERS
Friends & Brgrs
Friends & Brgrs story began in 2014 in the small town of Pietarsaari. Six burger-loving friends decided to open up a restaurant of their own, creating quickly grown chain of 28 restaurants and counting.
Fresh tastes best, which is why we bake our own buns in the restaurant, every day. It’s also why we ground our own beef, make our fries from fresh potatoes, and prepare our own sauces from scratch.
We work with carefully selected suppliers that we know and trust. We use more than 95% Finnish ingredients.
There are easier ways to make burgers and fries, but not better.

Holy Cow!
From its humble beginnings in Lausanne and after a decade of national growth and development, Holy Cow! has remained true to its philosophy: Swissness, swiss taste, and swiss made are an integral part of Holy Cow! DNA.
Holy Cow! strives to source as much as possible from local Swiss producers to offer our clients the freshest and tastiest burgers on the market. All of our ingredients (meat, bread, potatoes, salad) are locally sourced and produced in Switzerland.
Supply routes are short to minimize out carbon footprint and to maintain the freshness of our products without the use of preservatives. We strive to buy at least one product from each canton to bring all of Switzerland into our burgers.
