Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers Opens Second Airport Location

“At Freddy’s, we understand the importance of adaptability and innovation in an ever-evolving landscape. By embracing non-traditional development sites like airports, we’re not only expanding our footprint but also diversifying our reach, working towards Freddy’s overarching goal of connecting with new guests and fostering growth beyond conventional avenues,” said Chris Dull, CEO of Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers. “By establishing our presence in these bustling hubs, we are ensuring that Freddy’s remains a beloved destination for all, wherever their travels may take them.”

In addition to Freddy’s beloved steakburgers and frozen custard, guests of the new Gerald R. Ford International Airport location will have the opportunity to try the brand’s breakfast menu, including the Breakfast Steakburger, Breakfast Bowl and Breakfast Burrito, only available in airports and select non-traditional locations. The GRR location will operate from 5 a.m. to 7 p.m., seven days a week.

Freddy’s has maintained its strong growth momentum at the start of 2024, opening 11 locations so far and signing multi-unit development deals in key markets to expand the brand’s presence in years to come. Most recently, Freddy’s announced an increased reinvestment from its existing franchise network, with 30 new restaurants added to its growth pipeline. This steadfast momentum echoes the company’s historic year of growth in 2023, where Freddy’s surpassed its own record by opening 62 new restaurants, including the brand’s 500^th unit, setting a precedent for its continued success.

Freddy’s wide variety of traditional and non-traditional restaurants have consistently earned the brand recognition as a leading fast-casual concept and franchise system, including recognition as North America’s Best New National Brand Concept by Airports Council International, as well as being named #23 on Fast Casual’s Top 100 Movers + Shakers, #46 on QSR Magazine’s esteemed QSR 50 list and #67 on Entrepreneur’s Franchise 500.
