April 10, 2008
DALLAS — Wingstop has announced it has signed a franchise agreement with NFL Indianapolis Colts defensive tackle Raheem Brock to develop three restaurants in Philadelphia and the surrounding area.
This is Wingstop's third agreement with an NFL player or former player. Two former pro bowlers, Cleveland Browns linebacker Willie McGinest and former NFL lineman Ron Stone, signed on last year to open restaurants in California. Additionally, NFL Hall-of-Famer and Fox Sports analyst Troy Aikman is the company's national spokesperson.
Dallas-based Wingstop was founded in 1994 and began franchising in 1997. Wingstop has almost 600 locations open or under development nationwide and systemwide sales have grown from $11.9 million in 2000 to $200 million in 2007.
