## Story

Buffalo Wings & Rings is looking to Milwaukee as its newest expansion target. The market, which the corporate team has thoroughly researched, is ripe for growth as it further develops its downtown area.

Buffalo Wings & Rings Chief Development Officer Philip Schram explained to OnMilwaukee.com that the brand's innovative American menu makes it a good fit for any location. More specifically, he said that Milwaukee is an attractive market due to the size of the city, not unlike Cincinnati, the company's home market.

The franchise hopes to develop three locations in Milwaukee over the next few years, and with them add a family-friendly, elevated experience to the market that also focuses on the community.

"We really emphasize giving back to the community," said Schram. "Last year, we created the Buffalove Foundation, an organization committed to fighting childhood hunger. And we use it to help our local operators to get more involved locally."
