Arby's is owned by Inspire Brands, a multi-brand restaurant company backed by Roark Capital Group. Roark Capital Group acquired a majority stake in Arby's in 2011, and Inspire Brands is now the parent company that owns Arby's along with other chains like Buffalo Wild Wings, Sonic Drive-In, Jimmy John's, Dunkin', and Baskin-Robbins. Inspire Brands manages more than 33,000 locations across its portfolio.
In addition, Flynn Group is currently the largest Arby's franchisee, operating over 300 Arby's restaurants, but the overall ownership of the brand rests with Inspire Brands.
