Many out-of-state brands are choosing to enter Louisiana by way of a Baton Rouge location. The capital city of the state has proven to be a successful jumping-off point for many company's first area locations.

Chuck Kerr opened the first MOOYAH Burgers, Fries & Shakes in Louisiana back in 2013 to rave reviews. Since then, the brand has added four additional locations throughout the state. Kerr's location has remained one of the brands highest grossing locations in the nearly 100-unit system.
