Barbeque Restaurant Chain

The company is a growing restaurant chain wanting to expand across the country through internal growth and the franchising of restaurants. There are two restaurants open now and a third will be open in late fall 2009. This growing chain is supported by its sister company, which is a food distribution company that has a presence in 37 states and 7 countries. The menu for these restaurants has been designed around the most popular items in the company’s distribution inventory. The group wants to expand to 75-100 restaurants over the next 10 to 15 years. There has been tremendous demand for the franchising with several individuals requesting over five restaurants at a time. The company has refused these requests to date because it does not have an adequate infrastructure in place to support franchisees. In order to meet the demand for franchising, this will require an infrastructure that the company desires to build over the next year. The company will also continue its expansion plans for corporate owned restaurants.
