About Delight Restaurant Group
This restaurant company is one of the major franchises in the U.S. Including its latest purchase of 44 Wendy’s locations, it now operates a total of 155 Wendy’s and Taco Bell chain of stores.
Even with this huge number, the firm shared that it still intends to buy more and build new restaurants so it can continue to expand.
Delight Restaurant Group was founded in 2016 by Andrew and Richard Krumholz. It acquired 54 Wendy’s in March from NPC International that is in the midst of bankruptcy.
Thus, this is the company’s second Wendy’s deal this year. The value of the first deal for outlets located in Raleigh, North Carolina was not disclosed as well. Meanwhile, the newly acquired 44 outlets have over 1,200 staff members and reportedly churn out over $85 million a year in revenues.
