Here is one of the main reasons why I bought GFOX shares. Eating out is the new "American way" IMO. $709B in restaurant sales in 2015!!

According to the National Restaurant Association's 2015 Restaurant Industry Forecast (https://www.restaurant.org/Downloads/PDFs/News-Research/research/ForecastExecSummary2015-FINAL.pdf), the restaurant industry will reach record-breaking numbers. More specifically, the industry is expected to generate over $709 billion in sales. The positive outlook is that growth is likely going to speed up and will be the sixth year in a row that there has been sales growth in the restaurant industry. Also, restaurants are likely going to be the country's primary job creator. "The restaurant industry will outpace total U.S. job growth for the 16th consecutive year in 2015," reads a statement in the report, with Florida projected to grow over 22% from 2015 to 2025.

For Grey Fox, timing could be ideal as growth projections, franchise location, and its relationship to rising minimum wages--or lack thereof--play their parts in the future growth of the company. Earlier this year through a previous transaction, Grey Fox (OTC:Gray Fox) acquired DB Capital Corp and in doing so, now has ownership in two Graffiti Junktion Restaurant locations in Lake Mary, FL and Thornton Park, Orlando, FL. Graffiti Junktion currently has thirteen open locations and Grey Fox aims to build that by at least 30% within the next 18 months.

This growth is no secret to the street either and many investors, especially in January, are sifting through industry hopefuls to find early opportunities on restaurant stocks to put into their portfolios in 2016. With positive growth projected industry-wide and the subdued impact Florida restaurants could see in the near term with regard to minimum wages gouging bottom line performance, we're considerably in favor of Grey Fox Holdings through their focus on expansion of the Graffiti Junktion franchise over the next 18 months
