Tortilla group sales hit an “all-time high” in June, reaching £100.9m on a 12-month trailing basis as the brand made “solid progress” on its growth strategy.
For the 26 weeks to 28 June 2026, the Mexican restaurant chain reported a 5.9% increase in group revenue to £38.5m, while group adjusted EBITDA sat at £0.5m, up from a loss of £0.4m in the first half of 2025.
In the UK, total like-for-like sales rose by 13.9% with in-store sales up 6.5% and delivery sales jumping 32.7% In March, the food-to-go chain retuned to Deliveroo across 60 UK equity restaurants, while it saw a “continued strong performance” through Uber Eats and Just Eat.
Adjusted EBITDA in the UK rose by 8.3% to £2.6m, which reflected strong sales growth, offset by investment in the business and £0.5m of employment cost headwinds.
Since the end of the financial period, UK like-for-like sales have jumped by 19.4% for the 13 weeks to 27 September, with in-store sales up 9.1% and delivery sales soaring by 45.2%.
“I am thrilled that the group achieved a significant milestone of trailing 12-month system sales surpassing £100m in June 2026,” said Tortilla founder and group CEO Brandon Stephens. “Our ongoing investment in food quality, technology and brand marketing continues to resonate with customers.”
Earlier this year, Tortilla outlined 10 key objectives as part of an updated growth strategy. Stephens said the brand has made “solid progress” on each, “with long-term food and technology roadmaps in place, further brand enhancements and improvements to customer journeys across all channels, additional interest from franchisees following a renewed outreach programme, estate rationalisation where required, improved unit economics in both the UK and France, a reset of our governance and financial forecasting principles, and the development of a comprehensive value creation plan.”
