Orla McCaffery of the Dallas Morning News spoke with Fuzzy’s Taco Shop President Mel Knight, Grand Prairie franchisee owner Mark White and Arlington franchisee owner Clint Bixler. They discussed the new locations planned for Dallas-Fort Worth. The Fort Worth-based franchise also plans to expand its presence in Colorado, Florida, Kansas, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina and Georgia. The Grand Prairie, Texas store is expected to open in September.
“Traditionally, our approach to growth has been a little bit backwards,” Fuzzy’s president Mel Knight said in a statement. “We haven't really focused on marketing our franchise opportunity; the growth we've experienced has all been organic, which is a great place to be.”
