BANSAL GROUP OPENS BACK TO BACK CARL’S JR. LOCATIONS IN HOPE ISLAND AND ROTHWELL

BANSAL GROUP OPENS BACK TO BACK CARL’S JR. LOCATIONS IN HOPE ISLAND AND ROTHWELL

Carl’s Jr. is bringing Christmas early to Hope Island and Rothwell residents with the opening of its fifth and sixth freestanding drive-thru locations in Queensland on December 6 and 13 this year.

Carl’s Jr. Queensland franchisor, the Bansal Group, is continuing its expansion into the fast-growing Hope Island and Rothwell communities, following successful launches in Redbank Plains, Pimpama, West Ipswich and Eagleby earlier this year.

Pimpama has been the most successful launch to date for the Bansal Group, so the franchisor is excited to give Gold Coast residents another nearby location to satisfy their Carl’s Jr. cravings.

The new Carl’s Jr. is located in Hope Island Marketplace, a $65m cutting-edge retail development on the intersection of Broadwater Ave and Mervyn Drive. The marketplace answers consumer demand from the rapidly-expanding Hope Island area and is positioned to be a community hub with Woolworths, Aldi, a medical centre, and 36 specialty retail outlets within the space.

And after multiple locations to the south, the Bansal Group is finally giving Brisbane’s north side a Carl’s Jr. in the growing area of Rothwell. Carl’s Jr. will set up shop in the coastal community in the new Rothwell Village Development on the corner of Deception Bay Road and Morris Road.

Like all Carl’s Jr. restaurants launched in Queensland this year, Hope Island and Rothwell will have drive-through lanes and the new interior design elements featuring strong urban and industrial flair that complements the authentic food-centred customer experience Carl’s Jr. offers.

Hope Island and Rothwell locals will now be able to enjoy affordable, handmade menu classics such as 100% Angus Beef Thickburgers®, Hand-Breaded Chicken Tenders™, Hand-Scooped Ice Cream Shakes as well as high-quality breakfast sandwiches, premium coffee and desserts from Carl’s Jr.’s iconic California-influenced menu. For the health-conscious, there are low carb alternatives with any Carl’s Jr.® sandwich or burger available in a lettuce wrap.

The Bansal Group has earmarked at least another 15 restaurants for Queensland with Slacks Creek set to open next on January 27, and locations in Logan Hyperdome, Burpengary, Berrinba, Townsville, Toowoomba and Rockhampton later in 2019.

The Hope Island and Rothwell Grand Openings will be on December 6 and 13 at 8.30am. The Bansal Group is beefing up the deal for the first 50 people through the door at each location, who will win vouchers to eat free for a whole year!
