American fast-casual restaurant brand Hawaiian Bros has announced the opening of two new franchise locations in Phoenix, Arizona and Lubbock, Texas.

The openings are part of a recent franchise agreement with Stine Enterprises.

The opening of the Lubbock location is scheduled for 1 July 2024. The event will feature promotional giveaways such as free t-shirts and a Hawaiian Bros gift card valued between $25 and $500 for the first 100 customers.

One attendee will be awarded the prize of free Hawaiian Bros meals for a year.

The opening ceremony for the Phoenix restaurant took place on 24 June 2024 at 236 E Bell Road.

Hawaiian Bros is known for its island-inspired Plate Lunch, featuring a choice of chicken or pork glazed with a selection of sauces. It is served with macaroni salad, steamed white rice or vegetables and Dole Soft Serve ice cream for dessert.

Stine Enterprises owner and president Adam Stine said: “Texas and Arizona have been ideal states to expand the Hawaiian Bros brand

“We're excited to not only add another bricks-and-mortar location in Phoenix, but to continue our expansion into West Texas.

“The demand for Hawaiian Bros locations is rapidly growing and we're so excited to bring this island-inspired, unique cuisine to the southwest.”

In March 2024, Hawaiian Bros entered three new multi-unit development agreements to establish new locations.

Agreements with JCK Ohana, Sequoyah Hospitality and Rock Hawaiian were signed to open new restaurants in Portland, Tennessee and Las Vegas.

JCK Ohana, headed by Joe, Alex and Lauren Karcher, agreed to open five new Hawaiian Bros locations in Portland.

Founded by Joe and Cathleen Karcher in 1989, the company has been a prominent player in Oregon’s dining scene for more than three decades.
