GOLDEN, Colo. - June 7, 2013 - (BUSINESS WIRE) - Good Times Restaurants Inc. (NASDAQ: GTIM) today announced that it has entered into a five year distribution agreement with Food Services of America (FSA) that covers distribution of over 95% of the Company’s products.

Nick Biegel, Director of Purchasing for the Company said, “After Yancey’s was acquired by FSA and after going through a lengthy competitive bidding process, we are pleased that we are able to maintain our longstanding relationship with the team at Yancey’s and we are looking forward to all of the new resources that FSA can bring to us as a much larger company, including improved purchasing and freight efficiencies which should help reduce our cost of sales.”

Biegel added, “The distribution agreement will cover not only Good Times Burgers & Frozen Custard restaurants, but the future growth related to the recent announcement of the development of Bad Daddy’s Burger Bar restaurants in Colorado and other states, including the benefit of FSA’s relationship with a much larger distribution cooperative that covers the country. As we develop Bad Daddy’s Burger Bar restaurants out of Colorado and FSA’s direct distribution area, the national cooperative provides us with the ability to support our franchisees with much of the same purchasing power we have in Colorado.”
