Presence Nationwide
FAT (Fresh. Authentic. Tasty.) Brands Inc.
(NASDAQ: FAT) (“FAT Brands” or the “Company”), parent company
of Fatburger and Buffalo’s Express, announces the
development of 10 new co-branded Fatburger and Buffalo's
Express restaurants throughout California, Arizona, Texas,
Pennsylvania and Virginia. All locations are slated to open in
2019.
Fatburger, the beloved Hollywood burger chain, founded by
Lovie Yancey, maintains and upholds its unique culture and iconic
menu offerings by serving the same, signature, made-to-order,
Fatburgers, hand-scooped milkshakes and skinny (shoestring) or fat
(steak) fries as Lovie served at the original Fatburger stand 70
years ago. Further, Fatburger’s 35+ year old, Georgia-based, sister
brand Buffalo’s Express complements Fatburger’s menu
offering fresh, boneless and bone-in chicken wing options with over
13 proprietary wing sauce options.
Building upon the company's LA roots and success in the region,
new locations in development in Monrovia, Bakersfield, Cerritos,
and Lake Balboa will enhance the brand's presence throughout
Southern California; additional expansion in Virginia, Arizona,
Pennsylvania, and Texas further FAT Brand’s mission to bring the
iconic burger and wing brands to fans nationwide.
“It is very exciting to see the expansion of Fatburger &
Buffalo’s Express across the country,” said Andy Wiederhorn, CEO of
FAT Brands. “We are eager to serve our signature,
all-American offerings to consumers within these markets and expand
the national reach of both brands.”
