Franchise History

Founded in 1979, Mrs. Winner’s was once a staple in the QSR fried chicken and biscuits market and a tradition in the homes of many Southern families. During the brand’s early years, Mrs. Winner’s became known for its authentic Southern fried chicken, made-from-scratch biscuits and hot frosted cinnamon swirls. After struggling through multiple ownership transactions and financial missteps, Mrs. Winner’s closed all of its company-owned stores and filed for bankruptcy in 2010, leaving only a handful of restaurants open. In 2012, current President John Buttolph acquired the rights to the company and is spearheading the revitalization after recognizing that Mrs. Winner’s is a brand worth saving.
