Your Restaurant Development Partner
We enable restaurant brands to grow faster and more efficiently by providing the capital and expertise needed for strategic development
About Net Lease Development, Inc.
We are a real estate development company with 20+ years of experience developing commercial real estate by partnering with numerous national restaurant brands. We find attractive sites to build restaurants for you in your target markets. We then purchase the site, build the restaurant to your exact specifications, and lease the completed restaurant to you under a 20 year triple net lease. We enable you to grow faster by not having to devote significant time and capital to build your restaurants. This allows you to focus on your core restaurant operations while we help grow your brand. We manage the development process from start to finish and provide 100% of the funding to build.

Why Net Lease Development?
Experience & Expertise
We have been doing this for 20+ years and have successfully developed for numerous national restaurant brands. We only use the best general contractors, architects, and civil engineers who are highly specialized in this industry.
No Up Front Costs From You
The only thing you pay is monthly rent once the restaurant has been completed. You pay no up front costs before or during development. This allows you to devote more capital to your core restaurant operations while still continuing to grow your brand.
We Know the Restaurant Business
In addition to being developers, we have also been restaurant franchisees for 3 different brands where we have owned and operated numerous restaurants of our own. We know what it’s like to be in your shoes and can see things from your perspective.
A Reliable Partner
We only succeed if you succeed. We are trustworthy, responsive, and dependable. We want to help you grow and be successful.
Our Projects
We develop commercial real estate by partnering with numerous national QSR (quick service) restaurant brands, anywhere in the country.

Kenney Moore opened the very first Hwy55 in a mall in small-town North Carolina in 1991. It was called Andy’s Cheesesteaks & Cheeseburgers at the time, and its beginnings were humble: Kenney cooked every burger by himself from morning ’til night. And this was in full view of his customers. He couldn’t afford a traditional restaurant kitchen.
