ATIS NAMED IN THE SUNDAY TIMES 100: ONE OF BRITAINS FASTEST-GROWING PRIVATE COMPANIES

We made the list. For the first time, atis has been named in The Sunday Times 100, the definitive annual ranking of Britain’s fastest-growing private companies. We came in at number 52, and it means a lot more to us than a number on a page.

What Is The Sunday Times 100?

Now in its fifth year, The Sunday Times 100 ranks Britain’s 100 leading private businesses by sustained sales growth over three years. It doesn’t measure hype or headlines, it measures real, compounding commercial momentum. This year’s cohort collectively generated over £4 billion in sales, with an average annual growth rate of 108% across the table. The bar is high. Getting on it means something.

Hospitality doesn’t often make this list. The Sunday Times 100 skews heavily toward tech, media and services, industries built to scale without the operational complexity of running physical sites, sourcing fresh ingredients daily and training people to care about food the way we do. That’s what makes our inclusion as a London-based, food-first restaurant group genuinely significant. We ranked 52nd on the back of 81.91% growth, and we’re one of only a handful of hospitality brands to feature at all.

What’s Driving It

The growth is a reflection of the community that has built around atis. Customers who keep coming back, who tell people about us, who treat their lunch as something worth caring about. We’ve grown to 17 locations across London, expanded into drinks, catering and click-and-collect, and built a loyalty programme rewarding thousands of insiders every week. None of that happens without the people in our kitchens and on our floors every day.

What’s Next

Being on this list is a moment to acknowledge, but it’s not the destination. We’re planning to create more jobs over the next 12 months as we continue to grow. More locations. More reasons to come in. The same food, made with the same intention. Real food, real power, real growth.
