American multi-brand restaurant franchise operator FAT Brands has opened a new Fatburger restaurant in Paris, France.
Situated on Av Du General De Gaulle in Rosny-sous-Bois, the restaurant is the first of 30 planned Fatburger locations to be developed across the country.

The company will open the new locations in partnership with the group behind French company Big M CIE.
As part of the plan, two additional restaurants are set to open later this year.
FAT Brands’ fast casual division COO Jake Berchtold said: “France is a key strategic growth market for Fatburger, and we’re proud to open the first restaurant in what will be a strong partnership with Mehdi Bella and his team.
“Later this year, we also look forward to opening two additional restaurants with the group, one location in northern France and the other in southern France – a testament to our commitment to delivering our custom-built, high-quality burgers to more fans worldwide.”
Fatburger traces its origins to Los Angeles, where it was launched more than 70 years ago by Lovie Yancey.
Fatburger owner FAT Brands franchises more than 2,300 units across a global portfolio that includes Round Table Pizza, Great American Cookies, Marble Slab Creamery, and Hot Dog on a Stick.
Last September, FAT Brands reached an agreement with Green Micro Factory to relaunch Fatburger in Japan.
