MOOYAH Burgers, Fries and Shakes is number 12 on our list of the Top 100: Restaurants - Movers and Shakers.

Although MOOYAH opened 16 new units in 2013, that’s nothing compared to its goal of launching 40 by the end of this year. CEO Rich Hicks said the chain’s 2013 success was due in part to a passionate and ambitious team of multi-unit franchisees. And he’s not done looking for new recruits. “In order to continue propelling our brand forward throughout 2014, we are looking for prospective operators that possess the experience and enthusiasm necessary for long-term growth with MOOYAH,” he said.

Proving itself to be a “Mover and Shaker,” MOOYAH’s goal for 2014 is to achieve domestic and international growth, whether developing in existing markets with high demand or introducing the MOOYAH experience to new territories, said Michael Mabry, vice president of franchise development and operations. “This twofold strategy, coupled with an exceptional product, will allow MOOYAH to truly assert ourselves as the leader in the competitive burger segment,” he said.

The nearly 60-unit brand has plans to continue its sustained expansion, already predicting that the brand will add more than 1,000 jobs to local communities
