Farmer Boys, a Southern California-based burger concept, will open its second Arizona location in October. The store is in Tolleson at 1220 South 83rd Ave. and under the direction of franchisee Chrystalla Herry, who joined Farmer Boys as a general manager in the LA market. Her role expanded to multi-unit manager and operations project manager for the brand before receiving her MBA from ESCP Business School in France.
"I started my career with Farmer Boys at the age of 16," Herry said in a company press release. "Opening my own franchise location is very exciting. Tolleson is a diverse community with an appreciation for agriculture and the right mix of residential, schools and other local businesses. I'm thrilled to be bring approximately 50 full- and part-time jobs to the community and look forward to partnering with local schools and Phoenix Children's Foundation in the coming months."
Farmer Boys operates 101 locations in California, Nevada and Arizona. A third Arizona location is slated to open in 2024 in Gilbert, Arizona.
