About the company

Wingstop operates and franchises quick-service restaurants for guests seeking cooked-to-order chicken meals.

Most locations are franchisee-operated; Wingstop Inc. also runs a smaller group and earns revenue from royalties, franchise and development fees, advertising contributions and company-owned restaurant sales. Wingstop began with its first restaurant in Garland, Texas, in 1994 and is headquartered in Dallas, Texas.
