After announcing its planned entrance into Michigan in February, the quick-serve chain has announced a new franchise deal that will bring five stores to the metro Detroit area.
Jack in the Box had previously announced a five-unit deal that would bring its restaurants to the Grand Rapids area on the state’s west side. Now, it will enter Michigan’s largest market.
“We are delighted to welcome Maan Almansour and Andi Kareem to our growing franchise family in Michigan,” said Van Ingram, VP of Franchise Development at Jack in the Box. “Their passion for the restaurant industry and deep understanding of the Detroit market make them ideal partners to bring our brand to this vibrant city.”
The new locations in Detroit will offer dine-in, drive-thru and mobile ordering options. The planned expansion comes on the heels of Jack in the Box planning to grow its footprint in nearby Chicago, adding a 12-unit franchise deal to its Windy City plans after previously announcing eight company-operated units in development.
Other expansion announcements made by Jack in the Box this year include approximately 25 new locations in Florida and its first stores in Georgia.
