History[edit | edit source]
Bloomin' Brands was established in 1988 with the opening of the first Outback Steakhouse in Tampa, Florida. The founders aimed to create a unique dining experience that combined high-quality food with a casual and friendly atmosphere. The success of Outback Steakhouse led to the expansion of the company's portfolio with the addition of other popular restaurant chains.
In 1991, Bloomin' Brands introduced Carrabba's Italian Grill, offering authentic Italian cuisine in a casual setting. The restaurant quickly gained popularity and became a significant part of the company's success.
Over the years, Bloomin' Brands continued to expand its brand portfolio. In 1996, it acquired Fleming's Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar, a high-end steakhouse chain known for its quality cuts of meat and extensive wine selection. In 2006, the company launched Bonefish Grill, a seafood-focused restaurant that offers fresh and innovative dishes.
