UK-based restaurant brand Wingers has launched as a franchise and plans to expand its store footprint across the country, according to a report by the Caterer.

Established by brothers Amran and Dylan Sunner, Wingers currently operates five restaurant outlets in Lichfield, Wolverhampton, Hednesford, Worcester and Aldridge.

Under its new initiative, the restaurant company plans to grow from five to 50 sites across the UK.

The restaurant brand is known for offering buttermilk fried chicken with a wide range of spice coatings.

Amran Sunner was quoted by the Foodservice Equipment Journal as saying: “The idea to create a fresh buttermilk fried chicken restaurant chain was hatched long ago. It’s incredibly exciting now to launch the business as a proven franchise opportunity. 

“We are now officially inviting new franchisees to join Wingers and grow their own franchised businesses with the support of our experienced team.”

The restaurant brand will also identify sites for its franchisees and oversee the development of each store while providing training and support.

Wingers business development Anthony Round was quoted by the publication as saying: “I’ve worked in the QSR industry for well over 25 years and the restaurant concept and team behind Wingers are impressive. 

“Their passion, commitment and knowledge will ensure this franchise opportunity will fly. I am now responsible for onboarding new franchisees to help develop the pipeline of franchised stores further and push this exciting brand to great heights.

“Already we have franchisees wishing to open their second sites and keen to develop into true multi-site operators.“
