HBCU grad Nicholas Perkins is making history after he purchased the Fuddruckers franchise. This feat makes Perkins the first Black American to have 100% ownership of a national burger brand.
“We’re excited to be purchasing Fuddruckers and look forward to working with Fuddruckers’ many dedicated, highly capable franchisees to further build this brand,” Perkins said in an interview. “As a Fuddruckers franchise, I have a vested interest in ensuring that all Fuddruckers franchisees have the resources, infrastructure, and operational and marketing support they need to maximize their return on investment. This strategic alignment, when combined with the fact that we sell the ‘World’s Greatest Hamburgers’™, will ensure the long-term success of the brand and our franchisees.”
