Business Model
Freebirds is a privately owned company, with all locations owned by parent company Tavistock Group. The restaurant's primary offering is California-style San Francisco burritos, which customers order cafeteria-style allowing them to customize their meal by choosing burrito size and type of tortilla, then choosing its filling from a selection of meats, cheeses, beans, vegetables and sauces. Locations also generally offer customizable salads, tacos, quesadillas, nachos, and "burrito bowls" which are burritos without a tortilla. Side item offerings include chips, salsa, and queso.
Committed to operating in an environmentally conscious manner, the company stocks recycled paper products in its locations, and prints its menus on 100% recycled papers. They also encourage their guests to "recycle" their burritos foil wrappers by turning them into art work, which is then displayed in various Freebirds locations.

Famous quotes containing the words business and/or model:
“I cannot be indifferent to the assassination of a member of my profession, We should be obliged to shut up business if we, the Kings, were to consider the assassination of Kings as of no consequence at all.”
—Edward VII (1841–1910)
“Research shows clearly that parents who have modeled nurturant, reassuring responses to infants’ fears and distress by soothing words and stroking gentleness have toddlers who already can stroke a crying child’s hair. Toddlers whose special adults model kindliness will even pick up a cookie dropped from a peer’s high chair and return it to the crying peer rather than eat it themselves!”
—Alice Sterling Honig (20th century)
