We attribute a lot of our success to the people we have promoted from within and our team’s commitment to exceeding our Guests’ expectations day in and day out,” said Franchise Owner Josh Bergeson.“The Bergeson family is a great example of how multi-unit, family owners can thrive with the MOOYAH model,” said MOOYAH President Tony Darden. “The family now has four restaurants open in just five years, so they’ve clearly found their place in Madison. They’re involved with their community, treating Team Members right and providing Guests with the best experience possible.”As the franchise brand looks to the East Coast, MOOYAH will make its<a href="https://www.prweb.com/releases/mooyah_burgers_fries_and_shakes_to_open_times_square_flagship_location_with_major_exposure_to_new_yorkers_and_future_travelers/prweb17194524.htm?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=mooyah-burgers-fries-shakes-takes-on-manhattan-madison-and-texas-with-beefed-up-new-restaurant-design-and-updated-menu-thats-bucking-the-pandemic-downturn-2714345" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"> debut in Manhattan</a> near Times Square in December at 485 7th Ave, New York, NY. This first location in midtown is being operated by brothers Nick and Art Depole, bringing Guests mouth-watering, made-to-order burgers, french fries hand cut from Idaho potatoes and all-natural ice cream shakes, including the current limited-time only treats: Pumpkin Pie and White Chocolate Peppermint Shakes.

The design includes dining room seating zones, dedicated third-party delivery and pickup shelving, a closed kitchen, digital menu boards and a redesigned logo."The visibility of the location is truly unbeatable and will create an amazing opportunity to introduce our delicious menu, industry-leading mobile offering and refreshed restaurant design to an unprecedented number of Guests and franchise prospects who may be visiting the Big Apple," said Darden.In Texas, a massive, multi-unit franchise signing proves the high-quality, quick-service brand has real appeal while many of America’s restaurants and brick-and-mortars sit empty.Agape Management, a firm formed by longtime friends and seasoned food and beverage executives Sean McCullough, Greg Stevens and Ted Beaman, has bitten off the rights for 10 new MOOYAH locations and is taking control of two existing locations near Dallas, Texas.“We know MOOYAH as Guests, and we love it from that perspective,” said Beaman. “And since it brought in new ownership a few years ago, the company has done a lot to benefit its Franchise Owners — including improving the quality of the product and enhancing the Franchise Owner experience. We see MOOYAH as a very high-quality brand that hasn’t gotten enough attention yet, and now is an opportune time to get in on the action.”With a newly remodeled concept that both existing and new Franchise Owners are buying into, MOOYAH is herding in Guests at locations in markets where the brand never previously had a presence. Looking into 2021 and beyond, MOOYAH is eying expansion across major markets including Houston, Las Vegas, Orlando, Tampa, Phoenix, Nashville, Raleigh-Durham, Atlanta and Richmond.For more information on the growing brand, be sure to connect with MOOYAH Burgers, Fries &amp; Shakes on the Facebook Fan page, and follow MOOYAH on LinkedIn, Twitter @MOOYAHburgers and Instagram @MOOYAHburgers.For franchising opportunities, please visit franchise.mooyah.com.ABOUT MOOYAH BURGERS FRIES &amp; SHAKESMOOYAH Burgers, Fries &amp; Shakes is a fast-casual, “better burger” concept offering mouthwatering made-to-order burgers, French fries hand cut from Idaho potatoes, and real ice cream shakes.
