Fast-Casual Concept Set to Bring Four New Restaurants to Myrtle Beach Area

WICHITA, Kan., April 7, 2022 // PRNewswire // - Fast-casual restaurant concept Freddy's Frozen Custard & Steakburgers announced today it has signed a multi-unit development agreement to expand its footprint in South Carolina. With nine locations currently operating throughout the state, the chain is set to build four new restaurants in the Greater Myrtle Beach region, with development being led by veteran franchisee Rob Tanner of Custard & Steakburger Holdings.

"Our team is proud of what we've been able to accomplish thus far in 2022, and we are excited to build on our recent development success by welcoming Custard & Steakburger Holdings to the Freddy's family. They have extensive knowledge of the foodservice industry, and we know that their franchising background will position them for success with our brand," says Andrew Thengvall, Chief Development Officer at Freddy's.

Beginning his franchising career in 2012, Rob Tanner quickly acquired a deep understanding of the foodservice industry and later founded Custard & Steakburger Holdings to pursue an agreement with Freddy's. Partnering with his uncle Jeffery Postal, Amit Sehgal and former National Basketball Association (NBA) star Carlos Boozer, Tanner and his team currently own and operate eight quick-service restaurants throughout Myrtle Beach and South Florida, with 25 in development. Concepts that the group currently invests in includes Popeye's, Haagen Daz and Tropical Smoothie Cafe.

"When my partners and I began looking at concepts to diversify our portfolio, we wanted to find something unique that would allow us to continue operating our existing locations without conflict. When we came across Freddy's, we knew it would complement our other brands well," says Rob Tanner, Custard & Steakburger Holdings franchisee.
