Davis, of Phenomenal Wings, is a multi-unit owner-operator with over 30 years of experience in franchising and has opened nearly 200 fast-food restaurants, including Dunkin Donuts, Papa John's Pizza, Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen and Subway nationwide.

"Epic Wings has been a leader in the fast-casual space in Southern California for almost 40 years," Davis said in the release. "I believe that my experience in franchise development will help take Epic Wings from an emerging brand to a nationwide leader in the industry."

Epic Wings plans to increase its footprint significantly over the next several years with the addition of 100 locations.

"The experience and knowledge that Kevin and the Phenomenal Wings Team is bringing to Epic Wings is immeasurable," Rob Streett, president of Epic Wings, said in the release. "This level of experience and support will allow us to grow in these targeted markets. Kevin's expertise and depth of multi-unit development will provide Epic Wings with a significant advantage as we expand our national footprint."
