TL;DR

Freddy's Frozen Custard & Steakburgers has opened its 400th location in Overland Park, Kansas, marking a significant milestone in the brand's rapid expansion. The brand has experienced a surge in franchise development, including a 50-unit deal to expand its presence in the Southeast.

"We opened our first Freddy's in Kansas nearly two decades ago, and being back in our home state to celebrate the 400th location has been an incredible opportunity to reflect on how far we've come. Despite our rapid expansion, we've never strayed from The Freddy's Way, providing an unparalleled Guest experience at each and every restaurant nationwide," said Randy Simon, Co-Founder and CEO.

Freddy's landmark 400th opening comes on the heels of a significant period of success for the rapidly growing franchise concept. In addition to opening 31 new restaurants year-to-date in 2020 and growing its footprint in key markets nationwide, Freddy's has also experienced a surge in franchise development, including the recent signing of a 50-unit deal to expand its presence in the Southeast.

"This milestone achievement is truly a testament to the strength of our system and franchise owners, whose continued success has fueled Freddy's ongoing growth and taken our brand to new heights," said Scott Redler, Co-Founder and COO.

After a record year in 2019, Freddy's maintained its strength despite the COVID-19 pandemic's impact on the restaurant industry. The brand's investments in innovation and technology allowed it to continue solid sales growth and nationwide expansion efforts throughout 2020. In addition to the substantial development growth achieved this year, Freddy's is positioned to accelerate this momentum in 2021, with additional locations in the pipeline slated to open in Q1 in key markets throughout Tennessee, Georgia and Texas.
