Fat Brands accelerates Florida growth with 40-unit development deal

FAT Brands (FAT) announces a new development deal with existing franchisee Whole Factor, to open 40 additional Fatburger locations across Florida over the next 10 years, including new areas such as Jacksonville. “Two years ago, Fatburger made its return to the state of Florida after a 20-year absence, and we are not looking back,” said Taylor Wiederhorn, Co-CEO and Chief Development Officer of FAT Brands. “Our Riverview and Celebration locations have exceeded expectations with an incredible fanbase that loves our cooked-to-order burgers, fries, and hand-scooped milkshakes. Whole Factor is an excellent partner that understands what makes Fatburger such a unique, beloved brand, and their future growth will cement Fatburger as a key burger player in the state of Florida.”
