CKE Restaurants to open 72 Carl's Jr. Restaurants in Dallas & Houston
CKE Restaurants, Inc. recently announced that it has signed a franchise development agreement to open 72 Carl’s Jr.® restaurants in the Dallas and Houston markets over the next nine years. The agreement with Star Foods Investors Group comes just six weeks after CKE announced a 121-unit expansion agreement in Texas with RWJP Star Enterprises.
“We initiated our commitment to Texas expansion with the opening of new company owned Carl’s Jr. restaurants in the state last year, and we continue to build momentum with this announcement of 72 additional units in Dallas and Houston,” said Andrew F. Puzder, CEO, CKE Restaurants, Inc. “Combined with the previously announced franchise deal for 121 units, we believe Texas is well on its way to becoming a major stronghold for our brand.”
According to the information provided, Star Foods is to develop 32 restaurants in Dallas and 40 in the Houston market. The previously announced deal with RWJP Star Enterprises calls for 121 Carl’s Jr. restaurants in the Dallas/Ft. Worth, Houston, Tyler/Longview and Beaumont, Texas markets over the next 10 years.
Based in Carpinteria, Calif., CKE Restaurants, Inc. has a total of approx. 3,110 franchised, licensed or company-operated restaurants in 42 states as well as in 14 other countries around the world. (kbp)
