What Inversiones Pigasus S.A.S does

Inversiones Pigasus S.A.S, operating under the brand Pigasus (also styled Pigasus Pig and Burgers), is a Colombian gourmet burger restaurant chain founded in 2016 and headquartered in Medellín. The company operates a multi-location dine-in model across at least seven Medellín neighborhoods (Laureles, Envigado, Bello, Llanogrande, El Poblado, Belén Los Alpes) and has expanded into Bogotá. Its core offering centers on premium-format burgers — both individual items priced from COP $30,000 to $59,500 and sharing platters priced up to COP $192,000 — supplemented by branded extensions including the La Goleadora smash burger and a mobile game called Piggy The Game. The company has earned five Burger Master Medellín titles across 2022, 2024, and 2026, establishing product credibility within the category.

The business model is omnichannel and consumer-facing. Revenue is generated through dine-in service, delivery via third-party aggregators (Rappi and Didi Food), and direct ordering through the company's own website and WhatsApp channel. The brand's go-to-market emphasizes a recognizable pig-themed identity, local Medellín roots, and competitive recognition through Burger Master awards. The company reports 22 employees and operates as a private entity with no disclosed funding rounds, ownership changes, or revenue figures.

The underlying operational technology is minimal — no proprietary software platform, AI/ML capability, or data infrastructure is disclosed. Distribution is supported by standard restaurant POS and delivery aggregator integrations. The strategic posture is sub-national rather than national: Pigasus is dominant within its Medellín stronghold and is now testing replication in Bogotá, the country's largest food-service market.

Scale indicators1 record

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Direct peers

• Frisby: Iconic Colombian QSR chain historically focused on fried chicken but expanding into burgers and wings, directly overlapping with Pigasus's core menu and family/group dine-in occasions. Comparable Colombian footprint and pricing tier.
• El Corral: Colombia's largest homegrown burger QSR chain with deep national footprint and a similar value/gourmet positioning. Pigasus competes directly for the same Medellín and Bogotá burger occasions, though El Corral operates at meaningfully larger scale.

Broad incumbents

• Burger King Colombia: Global burger QSR operator with established Colombian footprint. Competes on price and convenience but with a standardized menu that does not match Pigasus's local gourmet positioning.
• Andrés Carne de Res: Iconic Colombian restaurant group with multiple concepts and strong group/occasion dining appeal. Comparable in brand recognition and group-format dining, though fuller-service and broader menu than Pigasus.
• Crepes & Waffles: Colombian-founded multi-concept restaurant chain with national presence and similar premium-casual positioning. Competes for family/group occasions in Colombian metros, but with a different core menu.
• Carl's Jr. Colombia: US-based premium-burger franchise operating in Colombia. Targets a similar higher-ticket burger occasion as Pigasus and competes for the same mall-based locations in major Colombian cities.
• McDonald's Colombia: Global QSR incumbent with significant presence in Medellín and Bogotá. Competes for burger occasions but lacks Pigasus's gourmet/chicharrón-led menu and local brand cachet.

Regional players

• Kokoriko: Colombian chicken-focused QSR chain with strong presence in Bogotá and other Colombian cities. Less of a direct head-to-head on burgers, but competes for chicken-wing and family-meal occasions in Pigasus's footprint.
• Wok (Colombia): Colombian Asian-fusion casual chain competing for casual group dining occasions and lunch traffic in the same metros Pigasus serves, though with a fundamentally different cuisine.

Others

• Juan Valdez Café: Colombia's flagship coffee-shop brand with a national footprint and similar Colombian-origin brand equity. Not a direct competitor in food, but a relevant comparable for how a Colombian-origin F&B brand scales a premium domestic concept.
