HOUSTON, Oct. 13, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Fuddruckers, home
of the "World's Greatest Hamburgers," is increasing its presence in
the Dominican Republic and its
capital city of Santo Domingo in
partnership with Giancarlo Bonarelli
of Franchise Management Group LTD. Based on the success of a
3,500-square-foot flagship restaurant in the upscale Galeria 360
mall, the team debuted a new Fuddruckers Express location earlier
this week – the Caribbean's first
– in the center's food court. Galeria 360 features more than 120
stores and restaurants plus a large movie theater.
According to Peter Tropoli, Chief
Operating Officer, "Since joining forces with Franchise Management
Group LTD for our 2014 debut in the Dominican Republic, we've been thrilled with
their enthusiasm, brand loyalty, high standards and market
expertise. We look forward to much success ahead for them as they
continue to win over customers in the Caribbean."
Fuddruckers Express will offer diners a curated and
market-tailored menu of burgers, fries, hand breaded onion rings
and chicken tenders, salads, wraps, plus sweet treats ranging from
fresh cookies to brownies.
Since 1980, Fuddruckers has been obsessed with making the world
happier, one great hamburger at a time. Grilled-to-order burgers
feature always fresh and never frozen, 100% USDA premium-cut beef
with no fillers or additives. Delicious, sesame-topped buns are
baked from scratch on-site throughout the day to achieve the
perfect combination of crisp crust and melt-in-your-mouth
texture.
And while burgers are the signature, the engaging menu offers
variety for many tastes with an array of sandwiches, platters and
salads. No matter what they choose, customers can customize their
meal with a trip to the legendary Build Your Own produce bar, which
features fantastic fixings like sun-ripened tomatoes, lettuce,
sliced onions, dill pickles, pico de gallo and classic cheese
sauce.
