Hwy 55 Burgers, Shakes & Fries Franchise

Burgers, shakes and fries


A retro-themed diner that features fresh, never-frozen hand-pattied
burgers, house-made frozen custard, and other classic favorites in a
unique open-kitchen setting, was founded in Goldsboro, North Carolina in
1991. Hwy 55 reflects founder Kenney Moore's commitment to authentic
hospitality and fresh food. Widely known in the state for its fresh food
and service that exceeds expectations, the chain won BurgerBusiness.com's
"Best Burger" in 2012. It also was recently named a top 500 franchise
in the United States by Entrepreneur magazine and a "Next 20" restaurant
brand by Nation's Restaurant News. Hwy 55 currently has 121 locations
in 10 states, Denmark and the United Arab Emirates.
Hwy 55 Burgers Shakes & Fries has been serving up good times and great food since 1991. We've achieved a lot in the last over 25 years, growing to over 100 restaurants across North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, Ohio and Florida, with 500 more locations scheduled to open. During that time, our mission has remained the same: to provide each guest with world-class service and fresh food in a family atmosphere. 

Hwy 55 Burgers Shakes & Fries fits a niche between fast food and casual dining, offering the customer the best benefits of both segments. We provide the convenience of fast food, with rapid response times and an affordable menu, but with a twist: our freshly made food is a much tastier alternative to typical pre-cooked hamburgers and french fries.


 The Hwy 55 Burgers Shakes & Fries franchise program is designed for the growth of the individual and the company; it's not an investment, it's a family.

The amount of the Area Development Fee will depend on the number of Hwy 55 Burgers Shakes & Fries restaurants to be developed under the Area Development Agreement, and will be calculated as follows: $25,000 for the first Hwy 55 restaurant plus a deposit of $12,000 for each additional Hwy 55 restaurant to be opened under that agreement. For example, if you will develop three Hwy 55 restaurants, the Area Development Fee is calculated as $25,000 + (2 x $12,500 = $25,000) = $50,000.
