Charlotte, N.C. (September 12, 2025) – Foundry Commercial has been engaged by Brixx Wood Fired Pizza + Craft Bar to spearhead real estate efforts as the brand expands through franchising across the United States.
Founded in Charlotte in 1998, Brixx has become a Southeast staple, with restaurants currently open in North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia. Known for its signature wood-fired ovens, scratch-made recipes, and inclusive menu options – including vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free offerings – the brand has built a loyal following without relying on gimmicks. Instead, Brixx’s success stems from its focus on high-quality food, thoughtful growth, and a strong infrastructure to support franchise partners.
Foundry Commercial’s Charlotte-based retail brokerage group will work alongside the Brixx team to identify and secure new sites that meet the brand’s specific real estate criteria, such as high-visibility end caps or free-standing locations with ample parking and patio space. Expansion will primarily focus on the Southeast, though opportunities in other attractive markets nationwide will also be considered.
“Brixx has been a long-respected staple in Charlotte for more than 25 years, and we’re honored to help grow a fandom for the brand across the rest of the country,” said Rhett Batanides, Senior Vice President of Retail Brokerage at Foundry Commercial. “With its unique mix of scratch-made recipes, neighborhood-focused hospitality, and proven franchise infrastructure, Brixx is well-positioned for thoughtful, sustained growth.”
With more than 20 locations already open, Brixx is actively pursuing franchise opportunities nationwide. To inquire about Brixx real estate opportunities, contact Batanides at Rhett.Batanides@foundrycommercial.com or 704-737-8164 or Anne Myers Gary at Am.Gary@foundrycommercial.com or 843-822-6620.
