FAT (Fresh. Authentic. Tasty.) Brands Inc. announces the opening of
Fatburger and Buffalo’s Express in Orland Park, IL with franchisee
A.D.T.J. Development LLC. A.D.T.J. Development LLC, a company
created in partnership with professional basketball players,
Anthony Davis Jr., Derrick Rose and Tim Hardaway Jr., and Chicago
businesswomen, Toi Salter and Jackie Jackson, will also be bringing
additional franchised locations of Fatburger and Buffalo’s Express
to Illinois in the coming years.
The star-studded team was created thanks to two
successful female entrepreneurs – Salter and Jackson. All three
players have family ties to the Chicago area, while Salter and
Jackson are reputable African American businesswomen in the
area.
“Our team is excited to bring the iconic brand
Fatburger back to the state of Illinois,” said Toi Salter, Managing
Partner of A.D.T.J. Development LLC. “It is truly our favorite
burger, and we look forward to entering this market.”
“Chicago has been hungry for a Fatburger for
some time, and we are excited to now be able to deliver our
one-of-a-kind burger experience to locals,” said Jake Berchtold,
COO of FAT Brands’ Fast Casual Division. “This
opening is the just the start of our growth in the state, and it is
particularly meaningful to have on-board such an experienced
partner to lead our expansion, including such celebrated athletes
as Anthony, Derrick and Tim.”
Ever since the first Fatburger opened in Los
Angeles 70 years ago, the chain has been known for its delicious,
grilled-to-perfection and cooked to order burgers. Founder Lovie
Yancey believed that a big burger with everything on it is a meal
in itself. At Fatburger, “everything” is not just the usual
lettuce, tomato, onion, mayo, mustard, pickles and relish. Burgers
can be customized with toppings including bacon, eggs, chili and
onion rings. In addition to its famous burgers, the Fatburger menu
also includes Fat and Skinny Fries, sweet potato fries,
scratch-made onion rings, turkeyburgers, hand-breaded crispy
chicken sandwiches, and hand-scooped milkshakes made from 100% real
ice cream.
A perfect complement to Fatburger, Buffalo’s
Express menu includes delicious bone-in and boneless chicken wings
accompanied by a range of original sauces. All of Buffalo’s
Express’ wings are accompanied by celery, carrots, and blue cheese,
ranch or honey mustard dressing.
The Orland Park Fatburger and Buffalo’s Express
is located at 15110 South La Grange Road, Orland Park, IL 60462 and
is open 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily. A grand opening celebration will
be held Monday, March 13 where the first 100 customers will receive
a free Original Fatburger. Guests can also score free fries with
purchase through the day.
