A&W Restaurants, celebrating its 90th anniversary, continues to celebrate with opportunities for entrepreneurs by announcing their plans for 10 state-of-the-art drive-ins in Minneapolis. The plans were announced at the ReCon_Global Real Estate Convention sponsored by the International Council of Shopping Centers, today at the Las Vegas Convention Center.
Doug Heinrich, A&W director development strategy, laid out expansion plans at the Las Vegas Convention for the iconic A&W Restaurants.
'We are looking for a few good entrepreneurs who want to work with a brand that has a loyal following in Minneapolis,' Heinrich said. 'We want to meet the growing demand for our brand.'
According to Heinrich, Patrick Nickleson, an A&W Franchisee, will be opening the state's first A&W 3-D Drive-In this Summer in Inver Grove Heights, MN, near the Twin Cities.
A&W Restaurants, which pioneered the drive-in concept with such All American Classics as its famous A&W Original Draft Root Beer, Papa Burger, Coney Dog and the one-of-a-kind Root Beer Float, is now rolling out new 'Drive-In Concepts.' This provides customers the ultimate drive-in experience named 'Three-D Drive In: Drive-In, Drive-Through, and Dine-In.'
'Literally thousands of Minnesota residents have an A&W story they can tell whether it was their first frosty mug of A&W Root Beer or their first experience at a drive-in,' explained Heinrich. 'Our new drive-ins along with drink new menu items such as our Blendrrrs with real candy pieces, Smoothees with real chunks of fruit, Slushees with real fruit juice and Limeades with real lime will help create new experiences for our loyal following in Minneapolis.'
