Jonesboro, AR – (JonesboroRightNow.com) — Oct. 21, 2024 — Since opening its first location in 1993, the Flying Biscuit Café franchise has spread its wings and taken off as a leader within the breakfast and brunch industry. With five new openings in 2024 and 15 anticipated in 2025, the chain is soaring high.
Having just celebrated its 30th anniversary, Flying Biscuit Café is known for serving fresh, southern-inspired breakfast, brunch, and lunch options all day, seven days a week. Currently with 35 locations and counting, Flying Biscuit Café has established a strong presence in states such as Georgia, Texas, Alabama, Florida and the Carolinas. 2024 openings brought over 150 jobs to local communities in Charleston, S.C. and throughout Texas.
In 2025, the chain is excited to bring its unique offerings to Jonesboro.
However, Flying Biscuit’s expansion doesn’t stop there. The brand’s continued growth is fueled by both existing and new franchisees, including experienced operators from various backgrounds in the food industry. This confidence in the brand—demonstrated by both veteran and first-time franchisees—has led to a steady stream of inquiries from food service professionals interested in joining Flying Biscuit’s dynamic franchise network. With new locations planned across current and new territories, the brand is seeing heightened demand from franchise operators who recognize the opportunity for success in this growing segment.
“We are thrilled by the momentum we’ve built in 2024, and we anticipate even more significant growth in 2025,” says Andrew Scherzer, Vice President of Franchise Development. “Our expansion is a direct result of the trust and enthusiasm our franchisees—both new and existing—have in the Flying Biscuit brand. We’re seeing increased interest from seasoned operators in the food service industry, which is a testament to the strength of our concept.”
The Flying Biscuit Café fosters a collaborative franchise culture, seeking input from local franchise owners along the way.
“One of my favorite things we do at Flying Biscuit is our internal competition, encouraging all of our individual restaurant chefs to create and share their innovative dishes. Winning creations are featured alongside monthly specials at all 35 restaurants,” says Brent Fuller, Vice President of Operations. “We help promote the dishes – and the teams behind them – via our own channels, as well as with local media and influencers.”
