Sardar Biglari Biography

Sardar Biglari is one of the most popular and richest Businessperson who was born on August 30, 1977 in Tehran, Iran. Biglari was born in Iran in 1977, a year before his father was killed in the Iranian Revolution. The family fled Iran as refugees. In 1984, they relocated into San Antonio, Texas.

Biglari purchased 4.7 million shares in Cracker Barrel in 2011. The year 2014 was the time that Harvard Business School professors Suraj Srinivasan and Tim Gray did a case study of Biglari along with Cracker Barrel. By the end of 2016, the capital invested of Cracker Barrel had risen by 284%, which gave Biglari the equivalent of half one billion dollars.

ON March 19, 2014, Biglari purchased First Guard Insurance Company. First Guard Founder and CEO Ed Campbell said: “I couldn’t imagine a better, more fitting owner of First Guard.”

On February 27, 2014, Maxim was bought by Biglari who commented, “We plan to build the business on multiple dimensions, thereby energizing our readership and viewership.”. In January 2016, Biglari officially took over as Editor-in- Chief of Maxim, though a Maxim staffer said that the new masthead title just formalizes what has always been clear: Biglari exercises full editorial control over Maxim. At one point in 2015, the staffer said, he decided to throw out a nearly-complete version of the December issue in order to completely redesign the magazine. On January 13, 2016 Gilles Bensimon joined Biglari as a special creative director. “What drew me to Maxim was Sardar’s vision for the brand,” said Bensimon.

On August 8, 2008, the company Biglari purchased Steak ‘n’ Shake. The company was losing more than 100k a day. Biglari transformed the company from near bankruptcy to producing more than $100,000 a day. In 2015, the company was able to record 24-consecutive quarters of increases in sales at the same time under Biglari. But, since then, Steak ‘n Shake has been running through some serious challenges. In 2018 its number of patrons surpassed their lowest in 8 years, dropping to 103 million and sales at the same location fell 5.1 percent. Biglari has mostly blamed the slow service performance due to the absence of investments into kitchen appliances.
