TORONTO — BURRITObar, USA Inc. has entered into an area development agreement in Hilo, Hawaii to develop three stores over the next couple of years.
This announcement follows the recent news of a 90-store agreement in Florida. While BURRITObar currently has three locations open in Michigan, the franchise is eager to grow and bring its delicious Tex-Mex cuisine to new audiences across the U.S.
“Our area developer possesses a strong track record of success in the franchise industry. They are well-suited to develop and support our brand,” says Alex Shtein, founder and CEO. “Their expertise in multi-unit franchising, business acumen and extensive knowledge of the restaurant industry will be pivotal in driving growth and ensuring the continued success of the BURRITObar brand.”
“This agreement is a significant milestone in BURRITObar’s growth strategy internationally as we continue to focus on expanding our footprint in the U.S. with our Master and Area Developer Franchise Model,” says Jeff Young, Chief Development Officer. “The U.S. is a key market with significant long-term growth opportunity. We anticipate that the U.S. will continue to fuel our expansion and enhance our brand’s reach.”
In 2023, its sister brand, barBURRITO, is on track to open 90 units in Canada, following the opening of 75 locations last year.
