Wing Zone Franchise Overview

About Wing Zone

Wing Zone was founded in 1991 at the University of Florida by Matt Friedman and Adam Scott, who dubbed themselves Flavorholics because of their love of great wings and amazing flavors. The Wing Zone franchise was born in their fraternity house kitchen, and the concept quickly flourished through delivery to their fellow college students. Scott and Friedman began offering franchises in 2000. 

Franchise History

In 1991, on the campus of the University of Florida, Matt Friedman and Adam Scott had a dilemma; there was no alternative to pizza delivery for students studying late or suffering from the late night munchies. To fill this void, Matt and Adam developed the Wing Zone concept. A population of more than 40,000 students was an excellent place to test their theory. A business delivering authentic Buffalo Wings to the campus crowd would be a welcome change to students. Matt and Adam took over the kitchen of their fraternity house after hours and perfected their special sauces and techniques for preparing delicious wings. Any questions as to whether the concept would work were answered when they sold out their first two nights in business. Matt and Adam quickly outgrew the frat house and went on to open two storefront locations in Gainesville.
