Report Overview

Roll'd is a growth-phase Vietnamese fast-casual QSR franchise operating approximately 100–125+ stores across Australia. Founded in 2012 by three schoolmates (Bao Hoang, Ray Esquieres, and Tin Ly) in Melbourne, Roll'd emerged from zero to a nationally distributed network in roughly a decade — a trajectory that marks it as one of Australia's most rapidly expanding franchise concepts. The brand's core proposition is fresh Vietnamese food: rice paper rolls, bánh mì, phở, salads, and bowls, assembled and served in a fast-casual format typical of shopping centre food courts, CBD retail precincts, and suburban strip locations.
