DALLAS (Yosefardi) – Wingstop has landed in Indonesia. The award-winning wing concept, with more than 650 locations around the world, recently opened its first location in Jakarta at the Kota Kasablanka Mall.
The debut is part of an exclusive multi-unit development agreement with Indonesia-based holding company PT Mega Mahadana Hadiya (Mahadya) to open 100 locations over the next seven years.
The company is moving quickly to introduce Wingstop and projects to open four more restaurants this year. Mahadya also operates Carl’s Jr. franchises in Indonesia.
Izran H. Pulungan, the President Director of Mahadya, said the Wingstop agreement will strengthen the company’s position in Indonesia’s retail food and beverage industry, providing approximately 3,000 work opportunities both directly and indirectly.
Opening 100 restaurants would make Indonesia the largest market for Wingstop in Asia. The deal marks the third country in Asia for Wingstop following recent expansion into the Philippines and Singapore.
With all products made fresh to order, the Wingstop Indonesia menu features traditional and boneless wings, all sauced and tossed in 10 original flavors, chicken burgers, Cajun rice, coffees, desserts and sides made fresh daily.
