Dairy Queen® is looking to expand its Grill & Chill® model in the state of South Carolina, and is specifically targeting the Spartanburg area for development. The Herald-Journal recently spoke with vice president of franchise development Jim Kerr about the brand and its expansion plans.
According to the article, the brand is looking at bringing upwards of eight new restaurants to Spartanburg by 2017, with a total of around 20 planned for Greenville and Spartanburg counties.
“The Greenville-Spartanburg area has shown phenomenal growth and we’re super impressed. We haven’t had the area as a focus, but we have a tremendous amount of interest and we’re forging ahead,” Kerr said.
