Boardwalk Fresh Burgers & Fries Signs Master Franchise Deal For Tx And Southern Ca

Boardwalk Fresh Burgers & Fries, a fast-growing, fast casual burger franchise known for its fresh cut fries and fresh, made-to-order, ground beef burgers, has announced its continued expansion with a new area development agreement for the state of Texas and Southern California, encompassing six counties in that area.

They have also obtained the contractual right to acquire the country of Germany for expansion with a proposed fifty burger franchise restaurants.

A spokesman for the group stated, "Our team evaluated several Better Burger franchise concepts and we are excited to join the Boardwalk family.

We look forward to entering the markets we have been assigned, integrating the franchise with the local community, and providing exceptional service to further Brand expansion." The burger franchise expansion will include a mix of franchised and sub-franchised restaurants. This group of seasoned developers were drawn to the Boardwalk Fresh Burgers & Fries master franchise model, as were franchisees from Baja Fresh Mexican Grill, Dunkin Donuts, and Subway, and franchise industry vets including the former CEO of Caribou Coffee and former COO of Jersey Mike's. As of August 2011, Boardwalk Fresh Burgers & Fries has nine area development franchise partners with territories spanning 12 US states and the District of Columbia.

Said Boardwalk Founder and CEO Dave DiFerdinando, "We are excited to further expand in Southern California, where we have one location already open in Costa Mesa, and to enter the Texas market. We are confident that this group of investors and their team have significant experience in business, finance, real estate, architecture and engineering, restaurant development, and restaurant operations in the fast-casual restaurant segment.
