FAT Brands Inc., the parent company of Fatburger, Buffalo’s Express and 15 other restaurant concepts, has announced a new development deal to open six new franchised locations in the Sacramento area.
In partnership with franchisee Raj Pooni, the co-branded Fatburger and Buffalo’s Express locations will open over the next six years with the first location set to launch by the end of 2023.
Ever since the first Fatburger site was unveiled in Los Angeles 70 years ago, the chain has been known for its delicious, grilled-to-perfection and cooked-to-order burgers.
“Fatburger is synonymous with California, so it is only fitting for us to expand further around the capital city, Sacramento,” said Taylor Wiederhorn, chief development officer of FAT Brands. “We are also pleased to have an existing franchise partner, Raj Pooni, who operates a Round Table Pizza location in the area, to open these new units.
“This speaks to our synergistic growth model of having our franchisees diversify their restaurant portfolios with additional FAT Brands concepts.”
