## Story

Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers, the fast-casual restaurant concept, has signed a multi-unit franchise agreement with Jeffries Investments, LLC to bring new locations to eastern Wyoming. The 3-unit deal will expand Freddy’s presence in the Mountain West region and support the brand’s continued franchise growth initiative across the United States.

Jeffries Investments is an experienced multi-brand franchise operator with more than three decades of experience across the restaurant and retail industries. Their portfolio includes quick-service and fast-casual restaurant brands, as well as hardware retail businesses. Through their new development agreement, the group plans to introduce Freddy’s to communities across Wyoming, with the first restaurant anticipated to open in Gillette in early 2027. Jeffries is focused on growing the brand locally and establishing Freddy’s as a go-to destination for guests.

“We’re proud to align with a franchisee like Jeffries Investments and believe they will make a strong impact in eastern Wyoming,” said Andrew Thengvall, Chief Development Officer of Freddy’s. “As the brand continues to make meaningful progress in restaurant development, we remain focused on expanding into communities where our flexible restaurant builds, and proven operating model can serve both guests and franchisees for years to come.”

Founded in Wichita, Kansas, in 2002, Freddy’s has built a loyal following through its cooked-to-order menu, hospitality-driven culture, and streamlined operational model designed to support long-term franchise expansion. The brand continues to attract experienced operators seeking scalable growth opportunities within the fast-casual restaurant space.

Freddy’s has built a foundation around its commitment to quality and genuine hospitality, offering cooked-to-order steakburgers, shoestring fries, and frozen custard treats in a warm, family-friendly atmosphere. Today, Freddy’s operates more than 580 locations and continues to actively seek qualified single- and multi-unit franchisees domestically and internationally throughout the U.S., Canada, and Mexico.
