Can fast food chains be split for purchase? Someone has turned franchise equity into an investment product.

[Coin World] Recently, I came across an interesting investment direction—some institutions are doing equity split investments in fast food chain stores. In simple terms, it means packaging the franchise stores of large fast food brands into investment portfolios and then allowing accredited investors to buy a portion of the equity.

This gameplay actually captures a few points: the fast food industry itself has strong anti-cyclical ability; regardless of the economy, people still need to eat; the operators are managing chain stores themselves, which can create real value rather than just financial operations; the most critical point is that the investment threshold has been dismantled, allowing people to share in the profits without having to open a store themselves.

It is said that such platforms also support investments using money from retirement accounts, which can be considered as incorporating alternative asset allocation into traditional retirement planning. However, speaking of which, there are also many pitfalls in the restaurant industry—location selection, supply chain, and labor costs can all be risky. This model of putting all your eggs in one basket but being managed by a professional team is likely to be much better than attempting it blindly on your own, but it may depend on the specific operator's level of expertise.
