BurgerFiInternational Inc. will continue to expand its presence in the Middle East in 2021. The restaurant company has signed a multi-unit development agreement with Food Supplies Co. LLC to open six restaurants in the Eastern Province of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The agreement marks the second country BurgerFi is developing in the Middle East. The brand currently has two other locations in Kuwait City, Kuwait. Rapidly becoming a globally recognized fast-casual “better burger” concept, BurgerFi’s first Saudi Arabia multi-unit restaurant deal comes off the heels of BurgerFi going public last month. The first restaurant is expected to open in Burj Alfardan in Khobar City by fourth quarter of 2021 with the other five restaurants expected to open throughout Saudi Arabia over the next few years. The concept is chef-founded and committed to serving fresh food of the highest quality. BurgerFi uses 100% natural American angus beef with no steroids, antibiotics, growth hormones, chemicals or additives. In 2020, BurgerFi launched its new Spicy Fi’ed Chicken Sandwich and continues to deliver the freshest ingredients and innovative menu items as it continues to grow restaurants, ghost kitchens and delivery channels. This partnership kicks off an enormous year of expansion for BurgerFi, nationally and internationally. The hand crafted fast-casual better burger concept has plans to open 25 additional locations in 2021, with West Boca, FL having opened last week and two anticipated to open in the next month – one in Palm Beach Gardens and the other in Henderson, Nevada, a Las Vegas suburb. The Henderson location is BurgerFi’s second drive-thru location featuring the brand’s newest drive-thru prototype. Topping off an exceptional year of going public, BurgerFi was named QSR Magazine’s Breakout Brand of the Year for 2020.
