Taster is a food and beverage retail company that develops and scales fast-food brands through collaboration with creators, chefs and partners. Founded in 2017 and based in London, it began with delivery-focused operations but is moving toward next-generation stores to bring brands closer to customers in urban locations. It operates across Europe (France, UK, Belgium and Luxembourg) with more than 130 locations, delivering high-quality, crave-worthy food to millions of customers. The portfolio includes Pepe Chicken, Starsmash, Out Fry, La Vie Dirty Burgers, SpudBros Express, Crousty Crew and Sheesh. Its model is designed for scalable growth, leveraging the creator economy to adapt to evolving consumer habits and to build a leading portfolio of iconic fast-food brands.
