FAT Brands’ Quick-Service Division Continues Strong Growth Momentum, Signing Development Agreements Totaling Over 50 New Stores
13 Abril 2022 - 10:00AM
FAT (Fresh. Authentic. Tasty.) Brands
Inc.,
parent company of Round Table Pizza,
Great American Cookies, Marble Slab Creamery, and 14 other
restaurant concepts, announces its Quick-Service Division has
signed 20 new development deals, totaling over 50 additional units,
following the acquisition of Global Franchise Group in June 2021.
The acquisition marked FAT Brands’ foray into both the snack and
pizza categories, adding the following brands: Round Table Pizza,
Great American Cookies, Marble Slab Creamery, Hot Dog on a Stick
and Pretzelmaker.
Since the formation of the Quick-Service
Division, composed of the brands from the Global Franchise Group
acquisition, demand has been high for new franchises, in
particular, amongst existing franchisees. The Great American
Cookies & Marble Slab Creamery co-branded restaurant model
continues to be attractive to new and existing franchisees alike
with new deals in areas including Nashville, Tenn., Houston and
Shreveport, La. Round Table Pizza is also deepening its presence in
California, with agreements signed for nine new locations to open
throughout the state in the coming years. Additional deals were
also signed for Great American Cookies, Marble Slab Creamery, Hot
Dog on a Stick and Pretzelmaker. In total, there are over 150 units
in the pipeline in the Quick-Service Division with over 30
locations set to open their doors in 2022.
“While the pandemic has certainly impacted the
restaurant space, we are so fortunate to have a deep store pipeline
in addition to solid same-store-sales growth,” said Jenn Johnston,
President of FAT Brands’ Quick-Service Division. “In the fourth
quarter of 2021, same-store-sales within the division were up 10.6%
in comparison to 2019 and up 16.1% in comparison to 2020. Since
joining FAT Brands, we have increased our scale, offered
franchisees access to new services, and have formed new synergies
at both the brand and corporate level.”
“The Quick-Service brands have been a strong
addition to the FAT Brands portfolio,” said Taylor Wiederhorn,
Chief Development Officer of FAT Brands. “In just nine months we
have made incredible traction in not only integrating the brands,
but also in signing new development deals. We look forward to
continuing to broaden the division’s presence on a global level in
the years to come.”
