More than 60 years ago Burney Jennings’ father, Maurice, had a choice: He could have the family farm or his mother’s closely-guarded biscuit recipe.

The Americans are coming: Lots of news coming from Paris as the 2024 Olympics are well underway but the news flying below the radar is that Wingstop Restaurants Inc. opened a #popup restaurant for the first time in Paris to allow visitors to skip all that creamy rich and tasty French food to opt for good all American barbecue chicken wings and French fries. The pop-up is scheduled to close August 10 but Wingstop will not let the French miss out on those spicy chicken wings, it will open more than 200 Wingstop permanent restaurants in France, the first of which will open later this year. The brand currently operates and franchises roughly 2,279 locations worldwide. And Wingstop is not the only one.

The company said it plans to open restaurants in Europe and Asia by 2026, with locations in five international markets by 2030. And in 2022, Papa Johns made its biggest franchise deal ever in China, TGI Fridays signed 75 franchise agreements to open units in Southern Asia and Southeast Asia and Brazilian steakhouse Fogo de Chão announced it would be entering the Asian market as well. That’s in addition to KFC, popeyes, Burger King and McDonald's, which all have an international presence.
