Wing It On! Expands Presence in Illinois with Two New Franchise Agreements

Wing It On!, a wing restaurant under Craveworthy Brands, has announced two new franchise agreements enabling expansion within Illinois. The new branches, managed by experienced franchise groups, will be located in Springfield and Carol Stream and are expected to open in the first half of 2025.

In Springfield, a local entrepreneur and military veteran with a successful record in sports and wellness franchising will introduce the franchise. This is their first venture into the food and beverage industry, and they are currently scouting locations in the area.

Another group of experienced quick-service franchise partners will open a Wing It On! location in the Northwest suburbs. This store is set to open in Q1 of 2025 to cater to local wing demands.

Matt Ensero, Co-Founder and Brand President of Wing It On!, expressed pride in partnering with these entrepreneurs. He mentioned that these new franchises will deliver a standout Buffalo wing experience to Illinois communities.

As the brand grows across the U.S., Illinois has become a key franchise expansion market. In July, the first corporate-owned location in the Midwest opened in Lombard.

Wing It On! was named one of Franchise Dictionary Magazine's "Top 100 Game Changers" of 2024. It offers entrepreneurs a turnkey footprint and streamlined operations to deliver award-winning wings easily. The franchise model is designed for off-premises dining with a seamless menu compatible with virtual kitchens. This franchise also leverages technology, offering mobile ordering and digital loyalty programs to enhance customer engagement and drive repeat business.

Craveworthy Brands, backing Wing It On!, seeks qualified prospective franchise partners to join their team and provide a top-notch dining experience in local communities.
