A Market Defined by Growth
Kissimmee, Florida, is one of the fastest-growing markets in the United States, fueled by both tourism and residential development. Its proximity to Walt Disney World, Universal Orlando, and the greater Orlando hospitality hub generates tens of millions of visitors each year. At the same time, Osceola County consistently ranks among Florida’s fastest-growing counties, with thousands of new residents moving in annually.
This unique combination of tourist demand and strong local population growth makes the Irlo Bronson Memorial Hwy corridor a high-value destination for national restaurant operators seeking long-term stability, visibility, and profitability.
The Opportunity at 5032 W Irlo Bronson Memorial Hwy
Located directly on this busy corridor, 5032 W Irlo Bronson Memorial Hwy offers a rare chance for operators to step into a 6,273 SF second-generation restaurant space (former TGI Friday’s). Unlike ground-up development, this property is fully built out and ready for reactivation, which means reduced build-out costs and faster speed-to-market.
Key features include:
- Existing commercial kitchen with FFE
- Walk-in cooler and dual hoods (5ft & 14ft)
- Spacious dining capacity for approximately 280 seats plus bar seating
Why National Operators Fit Best
For franchisors, multi-unit operators, and national food brands, this location aligns with the key drivers of successful expansion:
- Tourism traffic – Year-round visitor demand fueled by Disney, Universal, and area resorts.
- Residential growth – Osceola County’s strong population growth generates consistent local dining demand.
- Market momentum – New ownership activity and roadway improvements signal reinvestment and long-term upside.
- Turnkey readiness – With existing infrastructure, operators save on capital costs and launch faster than with new construction.
Strategic Expansion in Central Florida
The Irlo Bronson Memorial Hwy corridor checks all the boxes for growth-minded restaurant brands:
- High visibility on a major tourist and commuter route
- Consistent customer volume from both visitors and locals
- Strong fundamentals supported by Florida’s population boom and tourism dominance
For national operators, 5032 W Irlo Bronson Memorial Hwy is more than just available square footage. It’s a strategic launchpad to establish or expand a flagship presence in one of Florida’s most resilient and competitive submarkets.
