TAMPA — Burger 21, a burger restaurant franchise founded by the owners of Tampa's The Melting Pot Restaurants Inc., announced it is accelerating its growth plans for Charlotte, N.C.

The brand is shooting to develop four or more new restaurants throughout the Charlotte metro area, as well as additional units across the state.

As part of its planned expansion, Burger 21 will be exhibiting at the Franchise Business Opportunities Expo in Charlotte, N.C. on May 31 and June 1.

“Burger 21 continues to experience incredible success breaking into new markets and we see enormous potential for growth in Charlotte and throughout North Carolina,” Dan Stone, vice president of franchise development for Front Burner Brands, management company for Burger 21, says in a press release.

The franchise is seeking single- and multi-unit operators with restaurant experience. Potential franchisees should have a minimum net worth of $500,000 and liquid assets of at least $200,000 per unit. Depending on the real estate site selected, franchisees can expect the total investment for one restaurant to be $416,133 - $933,895.

Burger 21 currently has 12 open locations in Florida, Georgia, New Jersey, North Carolina and Virginia and 20 franchised restaurants under development across the country. It has one open location in Charlotte's Ballantyne area.
