Carts of America vs Wayback Burgers Franchise Comparison

The Original All American was founded in 1972 on the premise that the customer is always king. We recognized that the need to supply people with their own low-cost, fairly easy to run profitable business was real. With this in mind we created a very durable hot dog cart, the ORIGINAL - The Original All American. It was meant to be a virtually indestructible workhorse. It is, 42 years later. It is virtually unchanged. It is the most copied hot dog cart ever built. We started it.

Since 1972 we have added 5 more equally durable carts to our lineup and we continue to provide great customer service & follow-through. We even do your licensing paperwork for you and we provide a free detailed business plan. We are the oldest cart-manufacturing specialists in North America. We are as happy to serve you now as we were in 1972.

 

 

We are one of the largest factory direct showrooms in the Midwest United States, Located in northern Indiana and Punta Gorda, FL.

Though only in a few states as yet, Wayback Burgers' potential has been demonstrated by our loyal following. From our first humble shop in Newark, DE, opened in 1991 as Jake's Hamburgers and still a state favorite, we've now begun franchising aggressively. Having only recently grown to 54 contracted locations (21 currently operating) throughout the East Coast and beyond, we're moving fast. With new stores available nationwide [we may need to file a prospectus in your state prior to executing an agreement], here's the opportunity to set your course for success. At Wayback Burgers, our juicy, fresh-off-the-griddle burgers are cooked to order and never frozen. Our signature house-made potato chips go perfectly with our thick, rich milkshakes. The warm, welcoming decor makes the short wait for a hot burger that much easier, or customers can pick up orders placed by phone, fax or Web. Monthly burger and shake specials keep things lively for our many repeat customers. Additional menu items include hot dogs, a variety of sandwiches, chicken fingers, and fresh salads. Many Americans crave better taste and atmosphere than fast food chains offer, but they want value, too. That's why the number of US fast casual burger units (including Wayback Burgers) nearly doubled from 2004-2008, and their revenues grew even more. The 17 largest fast casual burger chains grew sales by 11% in 2008, at the height of a recession! A Wayback Burgers franchise offers a way to capitalize on this demand with a proven system for success. Simple, classic fare from Wayback Burgers lets you capitalize on options like drive-through, delivery, catering and fundraisers. We also participate in VetFran to support our American armed services veterans. Open the restaurant you always dreamed of, or take advantage of our discount on multi-unit purchases.
