## Story

All-American chain Fatburger, owned by FAT Brands, is continuing its growth across Florida with the official opening of a new location in Rockledge. The restaurant marks the brand’s fourth location in the state, further strengthening its presence along the East Coast.

The restaurant is operated in partnership with franchisee Whole Factor Inc. and is part of a 40-unit development agreement to grow the brand in Florida over the next several years. The Rockledge location will build on recent expansion in key markets, including Tampa, Orlando, and Jacksonville.

“Opening our Rockledge location is a proud milestone for our team and showcases the work behind bringing the brand to life in Florida,” said Spike Singh, Owner of Whole Factor Inc. “We remain focused on delivering an outstanding guest experience, along with irresistible burgers, shakes and fries for every fan who walks through our doors.”

Recognized as a Hollywood-favorite, Fatburger has built its reputation on grilled-to-perfection and cooked-to-order burgers, which can be customized with signature toppings including bacon, eggs, chili, and onion rings. To commemorate the new restaurant, Fatburger is hosting a grand opening celebration on May 30 with free drinks all day with any purchase.
