New Dickey's Franchisee Signs On To Open Location In Round Rock

ROUND ROCK, Texas, March 7, 2011 // PRNewswire // -- Dallas-based Dickey's Barbecue, the largest quick-serve barbecue chain in the country, announces their expansion in the Austin area this week as they make plans to open a location in Round Rock.

The opening is projected for later this year.

Dickey's is growing at rapid rate -- with 142 locations in 33 states the company has enjoyed a 35% growth rate over the past 2 years, according to company officials.

Dickey's only began franchising in 1994.
