## Story

Fast-casual seafood restaurant chain Slapfish has announced new expansions. Beginning with the establishment of a location in Orlando, FLA. The brand has signed a multi-unit agreement with father and son team Brandon and Charles Bengel, and Les Hatter. Slapfish currently has more than 150 Slapfish locations in development nationwide.

Les Hatter said, “Operating in the fast-casual burger segment for many years, we know that with an oversaturation of brands offering sandwiches and burgers, it can be difficult to expand and find prime real estate within that segment. In addition to offering high-quality, sustainable seafood, Slapfish has little competition in the fast-casual seafood segment, creating incredible opportunities for franchisees looking to expand their portfolio. We are so confident in the success of the brand we have invested in franchising rights across the state.”
