    WingStreet is undergoing an aggressive expansion strategy as Pizza Hut plans to add more than 4,000 new points of access within newly built and existing Pizza Hut restaurants within the next three years. Fueled by consumer demand, the wing chain is expected to reach the 2,000 restaurant milestone in 2009.

    The WingStreet concept has been recognized by numerous industry and consumer honors. In September, WingStreet won first prize in the Medium Hot Wing Sauce category for its Buffalo Medium Wings at the annual National Buffalo Wing Festival. This is the third consecutive year that WingStreet has won top honors at the competition. Additionally, in 2007, Nation's Restaurant News named WingStreet an honoree of its coveted 'Hot Concepts! Award.'

    The WingStreet concept was created in 2003 as a delivery-based wing chain and continues to expand its presence within Pizza Hut(R) restaurants across the country. WingStreet offers eight intense flavors of sauce in three wing varieties: crispy bone-in, bone-out or traditional style. Additionally, customers can order WingStreet Taters, cheese sticks and apple pies, as well as Pizza Hut pizza.
