Carl’s Jr. to Take on the Australian Market
Carl's Jr plans to enter Australian market.
Carl’s Jr., one of the world’s famous burger chains—with nearly 3,300 restaurants across 27 countries, is now planning to enter the Australian market.
The brand’s goal is to open 300 stores in the next 10-15 years.
Andy Puzder, CEO of CKE Restaurants, is confident on the potential of the Australian quick service restaurant sector as it continues to expand rapidly. Mr. Puzder further adds, “We also believe that there’s a real appetite for Carl’s Jr. amongst not only our target 18 – 34 year old male audience, or as we call them, ‘young hungry guys,’ but also everyone in Australia who aspires to be young. To satisfy this appetite we will offer our premium products, such as our wide variety of fresh, big and delicious charbroiled burgers that lead the industry in taste, quality and innovation.”
Carl’s Jr. is now looking for potential franchise partners to establish and operate franchise territories in Australia.
