NASCAR Superstar Denny Hamlin Partners with Chanticleer Holdings to Open Little Big Burger Location in Cornelius, N.C.
April 23 2018 - 8:30AM
Chanticleer Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:BURG) (“Chanticleer” or the
“Company”), owner, operator, and franchisor of multiple nationally
recognized restaurant brands with 55 locations in the U.S. and
abroad, today announced that it has partnered with NASCAR superstar
Denny Hamlin to open his first Little Big Burger (“LBB”) store in
Cornelius, N.C. The agreement also includes an option for an
additional nine potential future locations.
Hamlin is a bona fide NASCAR superstar.
The 2006 Cup Series Rookie of the Year became the first rookie to
ever qualify for the NASCAR playoffs and has qualified for the
playoffs in 11 of his 12 full seasons racing in NASCAR's elite
level. Hamlin’s 31 Cup Series victories place him 25th on
NASCAR’s all-time win list, which includes a win in the 2016
Daytona 500. A perennial favorite for the championship,
Hamlin currently sits sixth in the 2018 championship point
standings.
“I’m looking forward to opening my first Little
Big Burger right down the street from where I live,” said
Hamlin. “I’m a huge fan of Little Big Burger. The
burgers and fries are as good as you can get. I have been impressed
with the management team Chanticleer has assembled with Little Big
Burger, and I therefore can’t be more excited about being able to
further expand this concept to the Charlotte, North Carolina
market.”
Mike Pruitt, Chanticleer Holdings Chief
Executive Officer stated, “We’re clearly pleased to have Denny on
board, as our partner in this LBB location. Anyone who
follows NASCAR knows what a great driver he is, but he is also a
very charitable person who understands the value of giving back. We
look forward to working with him to further grow our LBB store
count, as well as helping to build awareness and goodwill for the
brand.”
The Little Big Burger brand is a fast-casual
restaurant concept offering fresh, high quality cooked-to-order
burgers operating out of a small leasehold footprint and leveraging
a walk up counter set up.
