Farmer J has reported around a 50% increase in revenue driven by new openings and continued like-for-like sales growth.

Turnover at the healthy QSR brand grew from £27.9m in 2024, to £41.1m in 2025, figures for the year ended 28 December 2025 show.

However, the business reported a loss after tax of £1.46m – up from a loss of £682,000 the previous year.

Farmer J opened four new sites during the period, bringing its estate to 17 locations by the year-end.

In the period since, the business, led by Jonathan Recanati, opened its first site outside the UK – on 52 Street in New York (January 2026), alongside three further openings in London.

A fourth is expected to open before the year end and a further London site is also due to open early next year, with Farmer J expecting to launch at least five sites in the UK in 2027, as well as two additional sites in the US.

In November 2025 Farmer J secured $23m (£17.5m) in new funding in order to launch its New York flagship site.

“After the success of our first site in New York, we will be looking at expanding our US platform,” says Recanati in the company’s latest accounts on Companies House, adding that it has continued to invest in its people, systems and infrastructure, including digital ordering platforms, to support further expansion.
