New Jersey’s Bubbakoo’s Burritos is hoping to see a growth explosion with its new franchise plan.

The chain that fuses Mexican and American flavors is initially focused on dotting the map with new locations up and down the Garden State, pinpointing key cities and towns within close proximity to the company’s eight owned and operated shops, according to a company announcement.

Additional markets tabbed for future growth will be identified in early 2016. Marking a significant moment for the concept, the brand’s foray into franchising comes seven years after the opening of Bubbakoo’s first location.

“There is an undeniable buzz around Bubbakoo’s right now – our stores are running at peak performance and we have an extremely talented team in place. The time is now to advance our growth,” said Paul Altero, co-owner of Bubbakoo’s Burritos and a seasoned restaurant industry executive. “When we take a step back and look at what we’ve created during the better part of the past decade, it’s clear that Bubbakoo’s is more than a great restaurant. It is a movement that is drawing in loyal ambassadors who want to be part of what we stand for as a company.”

The franchising plan arrives on the heels of the recent opening of the brand’s eighth restaurant, which launched operations in April in New Brunswick, New Jersey.

“As we grow we’ll never lose the touch that got us here…it’s our commitment to the best menu items among our competition and an extraordinary customer experience,” said Bill Hart, co-owner of Bubbakoo’s Burritos who also has years of restaurant industry leadership experience. “We’ve made believers out of our fans for the past seven years. It takes meticulous focus and that’s just how we’ll continue to reach the goals we’ve set for the business.”
