Benefits of Franchising
The benefits of franchising with Steak n Shake can't be duplicated:

• Proven Concept - The Steak n Shake concept has withstood all types of economic circumstances and continually emerged stronger and stronger.

• Growing - Since 1996, Steak n Shake system-wide sales have grown from $268 million to $549 million. In the past decade, the chain has doubled in size.

• Huge, Untapped Development Potential - Steak n Shake currently operates over 490 restaurants in just 20 states. Looking ahead, we forecast that Steak n Shake has the potential to develop over 1,000 units nationwide.

• Unique Niche Positioning - There is no single offering that is a head-on alternative to our restaurant concept. Steak n Shake serves a distinct niche in the mid-scale, casual dining segment of the restaurant industry.

• Core Products that Generate a Strong Loyal Following - The core of the Steak n Shake menu includes STEAKBURGERS™, thin and crispy French Fries, Chili, and Hand-dipped Milk Shakes.

• Product Development - Steak n Shake has a pipeline of new products that build on core products consumers love. Recent innovations have included new Side-by-Side™ Milkshakes and Sippable Sundaes™. Future innovations will include more milkshake innovation, burger news, and health conscious offerings.

All of these benefits equal a great chance at success in the restaurant business. The only thing missing is you.
