TL;DR
The Rio Grande Valley is ripe for QSR development due to its rapid growth potential and stable economy. MOOYAH Burgers, Fries & Shakes is taking notice and considering expansion in the area.
According to a recent study from QSR magazine, the Valley is ripe for expansion for quick-service restaurants. The area ranked No. 12 among smaller markets due to its rapid growth potential, and national brands like MOOYAH Burgers, Fries & Shakes are taking notice.
“We think the Rio Grande Valley has got a growing population, a stable economy, and we have a location open in McAllen and we think there’s room for growth in the Harlingen-Brownsville area,” said Director of Franchise Sales of MOOYAH Jordan Duran in an interview with the Valley Morning Star.
The Plano-based company will be celebrating its 10 year anniversary in March, and with numerous cities in Texas ranking in QSR's top markets, expansion in their home state seems viable.
