Royal Stag Story
Royal Stag: Crafting Excellence through Vision and Dedication
In the realm of modern business, where innovation and determination pave the path to success
One individual has distinguished themselves by orchestrating a symphony of ventures that embody sophistication and accomplishment. Will Saputo, an embodiment of unwavering commitment and creative brilliance, stands as the visionary force behind the Royal Stag brand—a diverse collection of enterprises that reflect his entrepreneurial spirit and unparalleled dedication.
Saputo’s journey began within the familiar embrace of fast-food giant McDonald’s, where he operates four units, generating a staggering $15 million in sales. His ascent to the peak of the industry was rapid, earning him the distinction of becoming the youngest approved McDonald’s operator at the tender age of 25. Now, 16 years into this journey, Saputo’s legacy within the franchise is firmly entrenched.
Out of this foundation, the Royal Stag brand emerged—a testament to Saputo’s boundless creativity and strategic acumen. This property holdings empire spans from luxury vacation rentals spanning vineyard, farms, equestrian, river, and great lakes properties in northern Michigan down to Flordia’s Gold Coast in Naples. In the realm of property, Saputo’s brand now spans across two states, boasting a remarkable $1 million in sales. With an impressive portfolio of 14 upscale units, the brand is continually evolving, redefining luxury living with each addition.
Royal Stag’s foray into construction, with its Stag Construction division, is equally awe-inspiring. A $5 million production in both 2021, 2022, and 2023, with an ambitious $10 million slated for 2024. What began as a venture to revamp properties soon expanded into the construction of game rooms, guest houses, glamping accommodations, and even high-end, award winning custom homes first turned into their properties division and now available thru spec homes sales division —a testament to Saputo’s ingenious ability to reinvent and innovate.
This innovation extends to the heart of Royal Stag Design, where the aesthetics of construction and property decoration blend seamlessly. But Saputo’s empire doesn’t rest solely on aesthetics; it encompasses practicality too. With divisions dedicated to maintenance, cleaning, and grounds, no stone is left unturned in ensuring that the Royal Stag brand is not just a name, but a lifestyle.
Yet, beyond bricks and mortar, the Royal Stag brand thrives in its unique dimensions. From aviation to vineyards, Saputo’s endeavors paint a portrait of a man who is equally at home in the sky as he is on the ground. With a team of 2 pilots, aviation training, air tours, and a private air wing, this is a man who dreams big and achieves even bigger.
The lush Yuba Vineyards, a dream that took root in 2019, now sprawl across 128 acres and 31 acres under vine, silently commanding a presence. But it’s perhaps Saputo’s Royal Stag Club that best exemplifies his ingenuity. With plans for the Huntsman House underway—a sprawling 26,000 square feet structure, three levels of luxury that house an 11-bed king suite boutique hotel, a gourmet restaurant, a tasting room, an exclusive gym and spa for adults, and a sophisticated cigar lounge—Saputo’s vision for the brand reaches a zenith of opulence.
