Tin Drum continues expansion across Georgia

October 30, 2012

Atlanta-based restaurant chain Tin Drum Asiacafe has inked a deal with Imtiaz Ramzan, Ali Momin and Ayaz Momin and their company MRM Inc. to open its first location in Gwinnett County, Ga.

The chain recently announced its newest location in Atlanta in Colony Square Midtown at 1197 Peachtree St. The dining spot, which is the franchise's 11th unit, will be operated by franchisee Yogi Patel, who recently opened Tin Drum locations at Emory University and owns the unit at Georgia State University.

Founder and CEO Steven Chan began franchising Tin Drum in 2011, and expects to double the company's corporate and franchise unit base by the end of 2012. Tin Drum is actively pursuing franchisees in the southern states of Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, Florida and the Carolinas.

"Atlanta has truly embraced Tin Drum's unique menu and its edgy and urban vibe," Chan said in a press release. "We are thrilled to announce the continued rapid expansion throughout the Atlanta area."
