Wing It On!, the wing concept from Craveworthy Brands, has announced two newly signed franchise agreements that will bring additional locations to Illinois.
Driven by two experienced franchise groups, the new locations will be introduced in Springfield and Carol Stream, both expected to open in the first half of the year.
New Champions Join Wing It On!
In Springfield, a local entrepreneur and military veteran is leveraging their business expertise to introduce Wing It On! to the State's Capital. With a successful background in sports and wellness franchising as well as real estate, this marks the franchise partner's first venture into the food and beverage space. They are actively scouting prime locations in the Springfield area.
Wing It On! has also partnered with a seasoned group of quick-service franchise partners. The entrepreneurial group, that boasts a strong track record in the restaurant industry, plans to open their first location in the Northwest suburbs. Slated to open in Q1 of 2025, the new location will cater to the local demand for a wing joint.
"We're proud to team up with these champion entrepreneurs to introduce Wing It On! in more Illinois communities, delivering a knockout Buffalo wing experience to local wingnuts," added Matt Ensero, Co-Founder and Brand President of Wing It On!
As Wing It On! continues to grow across the U.S., Illinois is a key market for the Brand's franchise expansion. It opened its first corporate-owned location in the Midwest in Lombard this past July.
"Illinois has quickly become a contender in our growth strategy as we expand across the Midwest," said Gregg Majewski, Founder and CEO of Craveworthy Brands. "With wing demand soaring, these new agreements are a testament to the strength of Wing It On!'s franchise business model."
