The California-based In-N-Out Burger chain announced plans this week for its most eastward expansion to date, with plans to open restaurants and a corporate hub in Tennessee.
"We are very excited to provide Tennesseans with our quality burgers, fries and shakes," Lynsi Snyder, In-N-Out owner and president, said in a statement. "For many years, we've heard requests from our customers in Tennessee to consider opening locations near them, further east than we've ever been. ... We very much look forward to serving them in years to come, and becoming part of the wonderful communities in the Volunteer State."
The new fast-food restaurants in Tennessee are expected to first open in the Nashville area, though not until 2026, according to the family-owned company. The plans include an "eastern territory office" that will be headquartered in Franklin, Tenn., just outside of Nashville.
