Whole Factor officials Gurjit and Spike Garcha said: “FAT Brands has perfected the co-branded model, pairing Fatburger, Hollywood’s favourite burger, and Buffalo’s Express, a wing brand sought after for its great-tasting wings and house-made sauces.

“We can’t wait to see the reception the brands receive in Orlando as we begin to roll-out locations.”

Orlando customers will be able to select fat and skinny fries, sweet potato fries, Impossible Burgers and hand-breaded crispy chicken sandwiches from Fatburger’s menu as well as bone-in or boneless wings from the Buffalo’s Express menu.

The move is expected to help Fatburger further expand its reach outside of the West Coast.
