Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers is expanding its Southern footprint with an eight-unit franchise agreement covering Arkansas and Texas. The deal adds to the fast-casual brand’s ongoing franchise development strategy and brings its cooked-to-order steakburgers, shoestring fries and frozen custard to additional communities.
Founded in Wichita, Kansas, in 2002, Freddy’s has built its franchise model around a streamlined restaurant concept and a hospitality-focused customer experience. The company now operates more than 580 locations and continues to seek qualified single- and multi-unit franchisees across the United States, as well as international markets including Canada and Mexico.
Andrew Thengvall, Freddy’s chief development officer, said the agreement reflects continued momentum for the franchise opportunity and the company’s focus on working with experienced operators. The brand’s franchise strategy includes both traditional restaurants and nontraditional formats, with the company actively developing markets across its domestic and international footprint.
As franchise networks grow, maintaining consistent operating standards across locations becomes increasingly important. Gorilla Dash includes a Knowledge Base that can help franchise teams organize training materials, best practices and operational information in one accessible environment, supporting teams as they onboard employees and expand into new markets.
The Arkansas and Texas agreement gives Freddy’s another avenue for growth while reinforcing the brand’s broader development ambitions. With more than 580 locations already in operation and additional territories being pursued, the company is positioning its familiar steakburger and frozen custard concept for continued expansion across North America.
