Get to Know One of the World’s Youngest Female Billionaire: A Drag-Racing Burger Queen

Meet Lynsi Torres: The 30 Year Old Drag Racing Burger Heiress

Chris Williams/Icon SMI

Ever hear of Lynsi Torres? No? Don’t worry, you’re not alone. A lot of people have never heard of the 30-year-old billionaire owner and president of In-N-Out Burgers.

And it’s a real shame, because as far as we can tell, she sounds exciting:

As owner and president of In-N-Out Burgers, Lynsi Torres is one of the youngest female billionaires on Earth, according to Bloomberg.

“They have done a fantastic job of building and maintaining a kind of cult following,” Bob Goldin, executive vice president of Chicago-based food industry research firm Technomic Inc., tells Bloomberg. “Someone would love to buy them.”

And although it doesn’t match the type of revenue McDonald’s enjoys, the successful and much-loved burger chain is doing just fine.

“The thrice-married Torres has watched her family expand In-N-Out from a single drive-through hamburger stand founded in 1948 in Baldwin Park by her grandparents, Harry and Esther Snyder, into a fast-food empire worth more than $1 billion,” Bloomberg notes.

“The closely held company had sales of about $625 million in 2012, after applying a five-year compound annual growth rate of 4.6 percent to industry trade magazine Nation’s Restaurant News’s 2011 sales estimate of $596 million,” the report adds.

However, all estimates concerning Torres’ wealth and the restaurants net worth are based on Bloomberg’s calculations — and the chain’s vice president of planning and development disputes these figures.

“In-N-Out Burger is a private company and this valuation of the company is nothing more than speculation based on estimates from people with no knowledge of In-N-Out’s financials, which are and always have been private,” Carl Van Fleet told Bloomberg in an e-mailed statement.

Here’s Torres’ at one of her rare business-related public appearances: The opening of an In-N-Out in Texas. (Courtesy The Dallas Morning News).

Torres declined to comment on the report, which isn’t surprising considering her penchant for keeping out of the spotlight. Speaking of which, what do we know about her? How is a 30-years-old running a successful fast food chain?

Again, Bloomberg provides us with some details:

When her grandfather Harry died in 1976, his second son, Rich, took over as company president and expanded the chain to 93 restaurants from 18.

Torres’s father, Harry Guy Snyder, became chief executive following Rich’s 1993 death in a plane crash at age 41. The chain expanded to 140 locations under Guy, who inherited his father’s passion for drag racing.

Tragically, however, her father died of a prescription drug overdose in 1999. He was 49. The company then traded hands to Torres’ grandmother, Esther, until her death in 2006. She was 86.

After Ether’s passing, that left Lynsi Torres as the sole heir to the burger empire.

“The company has no other owners, according to an Arizona state corporation commission filing,” the report notes.

Lynsi Torres. (screen grab).

But that’s not all she inherited. She also inherited her father’s passion for fast cars. In fact, her love of competitive drag racing is one of the few things that can convince the otherwise quiet and reclusive owner to come out into the open [h/t: Business Insider]:

And we’re not exaggerating when we say she likes to keep to herself. Very few people in the industry have ever met or know anything about the In-N-Out chief.

“I have no clue about her,” Janet Lowder, a Rancho Palos Verdes, Calif., restaurant consultant, told Bloomberg. “I was even surprised there was a granddaughter.”

When Torres was younger, kids used to tease her because her father flipped burgers for a living, according to the Daily Mail. Now she owns this $17.4 million mansion. Life’s funny like that. (Image courtesy Sotheby’s).

So what do we know? Well, we know this:

She apparently has no formal training in management
She has no college degree
She hates giving interviews
She has twins
She “inherited her Uncle Rich’s interest in religion, funding a non-profit organization called Healing Hearts & Nations that proselytizes in Africa,” as Bloomberg’s Seth Lubove reports

And that’s about it. Other than what we’ve laid out in the above, the competitive drag racing burger heiress remains a bit of a mystery, which is a shame because she sounds like fun.

  “She must be a genius…”
  
  I don’t know why “Blaze” ran this story that could potentially put her in danger of kidnap and endanger her children for the same but she wants to stay out of the limelight, apparently. We should let her. What I understand least though is why your disparaging comment on a woman who has lost so much that she is the last adult in her line. I would stay quiet and out of the limelight if I only had jealous comments. (Hint, hint.)

  She obviously doesn’t completely wish to be out of the spotlight…she races a Funny Car with the company name on the side and anyone in drag racing would know she is an owner/operator of the team… just like John Force….
  
  NHRA is a full time gig…she is out and about every month at some strip somewhere…
  
  at least she is a better representative then Paris Hilton is of the Hilton chain that she stands to inherit when her father dies….
  
  the part that caught my eye…yes she is a cutie…but that she is 30 and married/divorce 3 times already….I would say committment and daddy issues…

In-N-Out prints discreet references to Bible verses on their paper containers. These consist of the book, chapter, and number of the verse, not the text of the passage, in small print on an inconspicuous area of the item. The practice began in the 1980s during Rich Snyder’s presidency,[33] a reflection of the Christian beliefs held by the Snyder family:
Burger and cheeseburger wrappers
Revelation 3:20—”Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.”
Beverage cups and replicas
John 3:16—”For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
Milkshake cups
Proverbs 3:5—”Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.”
Double-Double wrapper
Nahum 1:7—”The LORD is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them that trust in him.”
Paper water cups (no longer in use for customers, they are now used by employees only)
John 14:6—”Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me.”
License plate keychain
1 Corinthians 13:13—”And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.”
French fry holder
Proverbs 24:16—”For though a righteous man falls seven times, he rises again, but the wicked are brought down by calamity.”-from Wik

  Seriously? Esther’s maiden name was Johnson, her father’s name was Snyder, both proper English names. Were you an actual Anglo-Saxon and not some online poser, you would have recognized this from the beginning and celebrated the association, however unearned it may be.

  Esther is an Old Testament Biblical name…very respectable…and yeah…Jewish…so what? All of my children have a Biblical name and NONE of them have a Jewish ancestor as far back as I know, which along one branch of my family tree is Lexington and Concord…you know..the “shot heard around the world.”
  They also have one Gaelic name and Swedish name and a Hawaiian name…we honored all of our forefathers with the names of our children…
  
  And yes…Johnson and Snyder are English but they can also be Scandinavian for Johnson or German and German-Jewish for Snyder…
  
  But that doesn’t matter regardless….
  
  I bet the obviously TROLLISH WASP, since he didn’t even know that WASP has “anglo saxon” in it or if he did he was just dumb to repeat himself….doesn’t even know where the Anglo and the Saxon come from….so a little history…
  
  Anglia and Saxon were both Germanic tribes from the current countries of Luxemburg, Denmark, and Belgium, and the Netherlands. The crossed over in the 5th century AD some peacefully, mostly not, and began mixing blood with the Britons, who by that time were already a mix of Roman and Celtic tribes. Now since Romans conscripted locals into the Legions as they conquered, it is hard to say the “pure” blood of Roman-Italians flows today in Briton or if they are just mutts. So – Jew hater – some of those conscripts might have been Jews.. sucks to be you, eh??

  @GhostofJefferson – If you were not so egregiously ignorant, you’d know that ‘Snyder’ is a German name, not English. “Celebrate the association”? What in the world are you talking about? Rather than the ‘ghost of Jefferson’, I think you’re not even worthy of being called the feces of Jefferson.

  @ Bryan 69 – I am fully aware of what ‘WASP’ stands for. For that matter, ‘White Anglo-Saxon’ is redundant, as former NYC Mayor John Lindsey once said to TIME magazine. I think your own name – Bryan 69 – is very descriptive, though, since you obviously have your head up your own backside.

  I think this is an example of people that didn’t earn their wealth. She inherited it through the work of her relatives. These are the folks that the Republicans are willing to destroy their party for defending…..multimillionaires and billionaires paying extra taxes. The vast majority of voters don’t have sympathy for millionaires and billionaires. In fact, most of the ultra rich are Marxist liberals, such as most “chosen people” and Hollywood elites. The Republicans need to focus on winning back civil liberties that have been eroded away the last 10 years.

  Kids have a right to their parents wealth. Parents have a right to leave wealth to their children. Did you ever get a job form poor person? This nation was built on property rights. It was Marxs’ idea that every generation should kill the top 2% of society to redistribute the wealth. The revolutionaries usually pocket the wealth.

No where in the story does it state she is the active decision maker for the day-to-day running of the business instead of the in-place executive team, just a general statement that would be applied to any private owner. But go ahead and believe what you want Jenny. It’s really everyone else that is clueless.

My guess is the three marriages account for the dudes that hooked up with her thinkin’ they were gonna get a shot at all that money and free burgers for life. FYI, most of the kids in that family were expected to work at an In-n-Out as they grew up. Yeah, she didn’t build it, but she has more invested in that company than just money. That family has always been a class act.

  So you have an issue with a family passing down wealth? You do know that her granfather passed the family to her father, not her, and if her father hadn’t passed unexpectedly it would still be his? She’s simply next in line, it’s not like she was chomping at the bit or is playing superior-gawdess or anything, she was a burger flipper for goodness sake and she likes drag racing. And here you go and belittle her.

  Earning isn’t a myth, but feeling that others must earn every cent lest they lack worth is idiotic.
  
  And “chomping at the bit” is just as correct as “champing at the bit”. Look it up. You’re trying to pull the “ain’t ain’t a word” stunt, without realizing that “ain’t” is actually correct insofar as it comes from our original Germanic roots of anglo-saxon language. If something is used by convention so often that it becomes a part of the lexicon, then the language grows, hence, why English has remained a living vibrant language.
  
  If you’re going to try to correct me, at least attempt to be right when you do so. Just because the Associate Press doesn’t approve of a phrase doesn’t mean that the language in question isn’t correct in use.

  Translated: she didn’t do a damn thing to earn the money. She inherited from a hardworking individual. Nice for her but don’t make this appear to be something else.

  Strawberry, I hope you’re being sarcastic. Did you read the story? she took one store and turned into a billion dollar business. If she had only one store in this economy chances are she would be out of business right now.
  
  I mean we all know she didn’t do this by herself but she sure is close.

  Over 140 locations when grandma took over in 1999. Granddaughter got the reins in 2006. Al j zira should read the article himself.

  I don’t know what your point is. The company was started in 1948 by another family member. She inherited everything…….did you read the article? She’s 30 years old and spends her time divorcing men a nd racing cars. And you ask if I have a problem with it? Yea kind of.

  Double Double, grilled onions, fries and a Strawberry Shake. The only thing I look forward to when I have to travel to LA for work.

She’s only 30 and has been married 3 times.
Shows that money can’t buy true happiness.
