With 13 locations already open throughout the United States, Mama Fu’s is looking to increase the number of restaurants it has in various stages of development to 29, having signed an 11-store development agreement in West Texas and San Antonio.
“It’s an exciting time for Mama Fu’s as we continue to build on the success of the brand and increase momentum towards our national expansion goals,” said Randy Murphy, president and CEO of Mama Fu’s. “We look forward to feeding the local appetite in West Texas, San Antonio and beyond.”
The most recent development deal has been signed with franchise veterans Ken and Steve Howard. The brothers possess a combined 65 years of experience in the franchise industry with brands such as Sonic Drive In and Buffalo Wild Wings. They currently own 15 Buffalo Wild Wings units in West Texas, Oklahoma and Arkansas.
The agreement gives the Howards the rights to open 11 Mama Fu’s restaurants. They have their sights set on Lubbock, Midland, Odessa, Amarillo, San Angelo and Wichita Falls in West Texas, as well as San Antonio.
