bb.q Chicken Lands in the Top 200 U.S. Restaurant Chains
Genesis bb.q Global has made it into Nation’s Restaurant News (NRN)’s Top 200 list for the first time, coming in at No. 180!
That’s a 43-spot jump from last year, based on total U.S. systemwide sales.
The 'U.S. Restaurant Franchise Ranking Index' is a comprehensive analysis of brands’ annual sales, number of stores, and growth rate in the U.S. restaurant industry,
and it is regarded as one of the most authoritative brand indicators in the local U.S. market.
What makes this even more notable is that 2024 wasn’t exactly a booming year for the industry. In fact, it was the slowest growth year since 2020.
So, climbing the ranks in a sluggish market? That definitely caught attention.
This evaluation is a highly meaningful achievement, as it demonstrates that bb.q’s business model, brand philosophy, and taste resonate in the United States, the center of the global restaurant industry. Going forward, we will continue to grow as a leading global dining brand representing K-Food, building on our global market competitiveness.
