DALLAS — WingStreet, the delivery wing restaurant cobranded with Pizza Hut, has announced that it is on track to double in size in 2008. The wing chain is expected to reach the 2,000-restaurant milestone by 2009.
"The WingStreet brand is picking up momentum and continuing to expand rapidly across the United States," said Lisken Lawler, WingStreet's marketing director.
WingStreet is undergoing an aggressive expansion strategy as it plans to add more than 4,000 new points of access within newly built and existing Pizza Hut restaurants over the next three years. WingStreet restaurants will open this month in several new markets including Chicago, Detroit and St. Louis.
WingStreet, a subsidiary of Yum! Brands Inc., was created in 2003 as a delivery-based wing chain and continues to expand its presence within Pizza Hut restaurants across the country. WingStreet offers eight flavors of sauce in three wing varieties: crispy bone-in, bone-out or traditional style.
Additionally, customers can order WingStreet Taters, cheese sticks and apple pies, as well as Pizza Hut pizza. There are more than 1,600 WingStreet locations in the United States, Australia and Canada.
