Doctor makes billionaire rich list by selling burritos

Dr Sam Prince is using his successful food franchise to eliminate crusted scabies in the NT
Dr Sam Prince.

An Australian doctor who founded a group of GP practices has become a billionaire at 38.  

But he has done it not by finding gold in the black hills of Medicare but by selling burritos.  

Dr Sam Prince founded Zambrero – the global Mexican fast food chain – back in 2005, a year before graduating from medicine at Monash University. 

He was 21 years old at the time. He said he wanted to offer a menu that was healthier than the Mexican food he had been serving while waiting tables in his part-time jobs as a student.
