The two locations, which both opened earlier this month, are the newest additions to Fuzzy’s butt-kickin’ franchise family in Colorado, which now features 16 locations with raving fans and major average unit volumes. Adam Herndon is stepping into his new role as the Director of Operations of the Colorado locations in his fourth year working with the company, transitioning from the corporate support team to joining a franchise group’s team.“Ever since my first Fuzzy’s experience during my college days eating at the Berry Street flagship location in Fort Worth, Texas, I was hooked. I loved that it was the kind of place where you could meet friends and hang out for some tacos and a couple of drinks, or you can bring your family after a soccer game or a concert,” said Herndon. “Fuzzy’s offers a fun atmosphere and an ambiance where everyone feels comfortable. Whether you’re coming for a meal with your family or having some beers while watching the game, everyone can enjoy themselves here. I know we are going to be a great fit for the taco lovers of Aurora and Parker.”In 2015, Herndon took his Fuzzy’s fandom to the next level and began working with the brand as a Franchise Support Coach. Herndon’s insider knowledge of the industry, from both a franchisee and franchisor perspective, has equipped him to bring the very best of this beloved taco chain to the Aurora and Parker markets.“We have created this environment at Fuzzy’s where you can come in a suit, come in shorts, come however you are,” said President of Fuzzy’s Taco Shop, Mel Knight. “You can bring kids that run around. Mom can get a margarita, dad can get a cold beer, and the whole family can get a great meal for under $30. Everybody’s happy.”“At Fuzzy’s, our fans don’t just buy our tacos, they buy franchises,” said Michael Mabry, Chief Development Officer of Fuzzy’s Taco Shop. “Adam’s unique background as a Franchise Support Coach will give him the expertise needed for explosive success. Our fresh and craveable options create seriously hardcore fans who never forget their first Fuzzy’s Taco Shop experience and end up wanting to own a Fuzzy’s of their own. Many franchisees like Herndon were drawn to the brand as fans first and they have stories about ‘their’ Fuzzy’s before they actually opened. In fact, franchise growth up to this point has come solely through the brand’s cult-like following. Fear not: Fuzzy’s Taco Shop isn’t a cult, but our food is so good, we could be.”Fuzzy’s Taco Shop owns the fast casual Mexican food category in every sense. In fact, the brand was named Nation’s Restaurant News’ No. 10 “Fastest Growing Chains” of 2018. With a best-in-class franchise offering, the unapologetic brand has captured the attention of multi-unit and multi-brand operators who are quickly scooping up territory claims. Since starting, Fuzzy’s has opened nearly 150 restaurants across the United States through completely organic, word-of-mouth growth within the franchise community. Now THAT is a committed fan base!To learn more about franchise opportunities, visit myfuzzys.com.&nbsp;About Fuzzy’s Taco ShopFounded in 2003 near the Texas Christian University campus in Fort Worth, Fuzzy’s Taco Shop® is a fast-casual restaurant serving Mexican favorites with a splash of Baja.
