Bringing Taste to the Tar Heel State: MOOYAH Burgers, Fries & Shakes Debuts in Matthews

Local Entrepreneur Brings Quality Dining and New Jobs to Matthews Area

DALLAS (PRWEB) February 23, 2015 - If there's one thing Tar Heels know and appreciate, it's a good burger – and this is just one of the reasons John Ficara is gearing up to expand the MOOYAH brand in North Carolina. Now food fanatics in and around the Matthews area will have a new option for mouth-watering burgers, buns, fries, hotdogs, and shakes, as the brand's first restaurant will be located in the Sycamore Commons, 2233-C2 Matthews Township Pkwy. Ficara will debut the state's flagship MOOYAH location on February 23.

"Beyond the brand, I knew MOOYAH was a winner for one simple reason – the food," Ficara said, stating it was MOOYAH'S dedication to high-quality products that drew him to the brand in the first place. "I know diners will agree that our food options, our inviting atmosphere and customer service easily set us apart from the competition. "

Ficara's confidence in the brand and concept led him to relocate his family from Virginia specifically to bring MOOYAH to North Carolina. His opening kick starts MOOYAH's franchise growth strategy to open 20 locations in the Tar Heel State over the next ten years.

"We look forward to introducing North Carolina Guests to the MOOYAH brand, and welcoming them into our continually growing fan base," said Michael Mabry, COO of MOOYAH Burgers, Fries & Shakes. "From the Guests we serve to the franchisees who carry the MOOYAH torch, our brand appeals to a wide demographic. I'm confident that Guests in North Carolina will find something that they love at MOOYAH."

In addition to the burgers, the sides and desserts are not to be forgotten. MOOYAH fries are not an afterthought, but a crucial component of the MOOYAH experience. The daily-cut spuds are always cooked fresh, and transformed into the perfect French fries through a proprietary six-step, 24-hour process. Guests also have the option of the ever-popular Sweet Potato Fries. To offset the savory side of the menu, MOOYAH offers handcrafted shakes made with 100 percent real ice cream. Like their burgers, MOOYAH shakes can be customized with fun ice cream flavors and sweet toppings such as M&M's®, cookie dough and Reese's® Peanut Butter Cups.

MOOYAH has plans to continue its sustained expansion and predicts the brand will add more than 1,000 jobs to local communities through its restaurant openings in 2015. The burger franchise shows no signs of slowing down and aims to deliver a simple American classic that's not only made well, but produced in a friendly and comfortable environment to new and fresh markets in the future.
