Buffalo Wings & Rings Spearheads Growth in Kentucky with Crestview Hills Opening
Cincinnati (PRWEB) June 20, 2014 -- Paving a path for itself with its powerful combination of innovative menu items and a welcoming family-friendly atmosphere, Buffalo Wings & Rings is confidently moving forward with its rapid growth plans to serve more communities across the nation. In the sports restaurant brand’s latest developments, Buffalo Wings & Rings announced it has opened its newest restaurant at Crestview Hills Town Center on June 18, 2014, with a VIP event on June 16.
“We’re very excited to offer Crestview Hills residents premier wings and incredible customer service. As a brand established in the neighboring city of Cincinnati, the community of Crestview Hills is very close to our heart,” said Buffalo Wings & Rings CEO Nader Masadeh. “While there is no shortage of restaurants for families to choose when dining out, I think that our interest in sensory impressions and culinary trends has translated well for both families and friends looking for a fun night out in a comfortable environment.”
The opening of the Crestview Hills restaurant marks the first of five new locations planned for the brand’s development around its home base of Cincinnati. Moreover, as part of Buffalo Wings & Rings’ efforts to revitalize the brand, the franchise plans to remodel existing restaurants in the greater Cincinnati area to ensure that guests enjoy the elevated experience that Buffalo Wings & Rings prides itself on.
As a reflection of the brand’s success in attracting business-savvy entrepreneurs eager to join an up-and-coming, quality-focused team, Buffalo Wings & Rings’ Crestview Hills restaurant will open under the leadership of General Manager Dave Seeger.
Seeger joins Buffalo Wings & Rings with the entrepreneurial and managerial skills that will ensure the brand continues to advance against its competitors. In addition to having previously owned and managed the day-to-day operations of two local restaurants in Cincinnati for a total of seven years, Seeger also spent the majority of his young adulthood working in restaurants.
“I’m looking forward to seeing the excitement of family and friends come together at Buffalo Wings & Rings,” Seeger said. “Families can come and relax with a great meal in an open and welcoming environment.”
Based on Buffalo Wings & Rings’ confidence in Seeger’s management of the restaurant, the brand has chosen the Crestview Hills location to act as a training site for future managers and franchisees, and is one of the first corporate locations developed with the brand’s newest restaurant prototype design.
Since 2011, the brand’s newest prototype has been a huge success, both with new units and converted units. The brand has a flexible footprint of 4,500- 6,000-square-foot per location (customized to your real estate), a seating range of 180-220 seats with a tap table, as well as a covered outdoor patio in its design.
“This opportunity with Buffalo Wings & Rings is perfect – I get to help an already successful operation grow while also applying my experience in the business world to support their development,” Seeger said. “Buffalo Wings & Rings’ growth opportunity appealed to me a lot. Not only in terms of helping open more stores, but also hopefully the opportunity to eventually join the corporate team as the brand continues to grow.”
Founded in 1984, Buffalo Wings & Rings operates 45 restaurants in the United States and 12 locations abroad, and has grown consistently and steadily. Since rebranding itself and levitating away from the concept of being a simple ‘wings and rings’ restaurant, the franchise has evolved beyond its core items to appeal to an ever-growing customer base.
A brand is only as good as its food, and the food at Buffalo Wings & Rings is exceptional. Guests are treated to fresh – never frozen – wings with 12 flavors and two dry seasonings that range from the traditional to the avant-garde, and offered the opportunity to select the degree of heat that they prefer. Alongside those wings is fresh-made blue cheese dressing that will make the customer think they are dining at the finest steakhouse in town.
“Our customizability is fundamental to our success,” Masadeh said. “Everyone who spends a night with us gets what they want, the way that they want it, and in an atmosphere that’s warm and welcoming. If you are a wing connoisseur or simply enjoy being out with your family for a great meal, we have a table waiting for you at Buffalo Wings & Rings.”
