Here it is: Restaurant magazine’s inaugural list of the top 100 restaurant companies operating in the UK today – known as the R100.

Through the links below you’ll find profiles of each of the companies, with information on their brands, reasons for their success and future plans.

The list is based on turnover and ranges from the very large to the relatively small. It excludes those listed on the Stock Exchange’s Main Market, but includes AIM-listed restaurant companies.

Due to a lack of available data, a small number of the turnovers quoted are estimates. These are clearly marked. Other figures are based on data that is accurate as of April 2008.

Gondola Group, formerly Gondola Holdings, tops the list of restaurant companies in terms of turnover (£423m) and is streets ahead of the nearest competition.
