Hawaiian Bros has announced the launch of its first franchise location in Wichita, Kansas, US.

This location will be the second restaurant of Hawaiian Bros recently opened by Ohana Restaurant Group under their franchisee agreement.

A grand opening will be hosted by Hawaiian Bros on 18 November at 1360 N Greenwich Rd.

This event will offer the first 100 customers in line a complimentary t-shirt and a Hawaiian Bros gift card valued from $25 to $500 with their purchase.

Additionally, one lucky attendee will win Hawaiian Bros meals for an entire year. Following the celebration, the new location will operate daily from 11am to 12am. 

The Wichita outlet is also introducing two new menu items: the Keiki Meal designed for children and featuring Huli Huli Chicken, rice, pineapple, a beverage, Dole Soft Serve, and a sticker.

It also offers an assortment of wraps incorporating Hawaiian Bros' signature flavours such as Pacific Island, Huli Huli, and Molokai Mac.

Before the public opening, Hawaiian Bros will host an exclusive VIP event on 16 November, with two sessions at 11am–2pm and 5pm–8pm.

During this event, medical personnel, first responders, academic staff, students and local business employees will get a treat to a free classic Plate Lunch.

Ohana Restaurant Group owner Zach Fugate said: "It's so exciting to expand as our island-inspired dishes have been growing in popularity across the great state of Kansas.

"We've been eager to open this location and bring our unique cuisine to Wichita and, next month, we will continue this momentum with our next Kansas location in Manhattan."

Hawaiian Bros’ Plate Lunches offer chicken varieties or pork glazed with a range of sauces from sweet to spicy.

Accompanied by macaroni salad and steamed rice or vegetables, and capped off with Dole Soft Serve, its offerings are made from fresh ingredients without the use of freezers, fryers, or microwaves.
