All-American Fare From Fatburger and Buffalo's Express to Continue to
Spread in Chinese Market
LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
FAT (Fresh. Authentic. Tasty.) Brands Inc. (NASDAQ: FAT) (“FAT
Brands” or the “Company”), parent company of Fatburger,
The Last Great Hamburger Stand™, announces the development of six new
co-branded Fatburger and Buffalo's Express restaurants
throughout Shanghai with Bloomfield Pty. Ltd. The new locations will
build on FAT Brands' existing presence in China, where the company
currently operates multiple successful locations in both Beijing and
Shanghai.
Fatburger, the beloved Hollywood burger chain founded by Lovie
Yancey, maintains and upholds its unique culture and trademark menu
offerings crafted by founder Lovie Yancey when she launched the brand
almost 70 years ago. Each Fatburger burger is made-to-order with
traditional fixings and delicious add-on items such as bacon, onion
rings, cheese and egg. To complement Fatburger’s menu, Buffalo’s
Express offers fresh, never frozen, boneless and bone-in chicken
wings with over 13 different sauces.
“When expanding internationally, it's important to identify a partner we
can trust with our iconic brand. Markets such as Shanghai, where demand
and crowds are large, magnifies this need even more,” said Andy
Wiederhorn, CEO of FAT Brands. “We're thrilled to open more
restaurants with the Bloomfield team. They've done an excellent job
maintaining the integrity of our brand while providing a deep
understanding of the Chinese consumer.”
