Johnson Restaurant Group Adds Fuzzy's Taco Shop To Its Portfolio

Casper, Wyoming-based Johnson Restaurant Group has signed a new agreement to introduce Fuzzy’s Taco Shop to the Wyoming Market, with plans to continue expansion into Montana as part of a five-store agreement. 

Johnson Restaurant Group currently owns 13 restaurants including Old Chicago, and independently owned Johnny J’s Diner, FireRock Steakhouse, Wyoming Ale Works, and J’s Pub locations. Their first Fuzzy’s location is set to open in Casper, Wyoming by mid-summer.

“We were first introduced to Fuzzy’s Taco Shop on a trip to Texas, and immediately knew there was something special about the brand,” said Johnson Restaurant Group owner John Johnson. “The fact that the food is delicious and the portions are generous while being served in a fast-casual setting with a full bar is extremely unique to any other concept we’ve encountered. We are looking forward to opening our first Fuzzy’s in our home market where our company is headquartered and know that the Casper community will love it as much as we do.” 

Wyoming marks the 18th state that the fast-casual taco brand has entered. The franchise now has nearly 150 franchise and corporate-owned locations.
