BBQ To Open Third New Zealand Outlet

The monthly sales of BBQ Queen Street, located in central Auckland, New Zealand, have recently surged to about three times the level seen in the early days after opening.Genesis BBQ Group said on Aug. 28 that it will open its third store in Whangarei, in the northern part of New Zealand’s North Isla

The highly popular BBQ chain, known for its K-chicken and K-food, has announced plans to open its third outlet in New Zealand's bustling city of Whangarei at the close of September. This move marks the company's rapid expansion in just over a year and a half since entering the Auckland market in July of the previous year. The company's management attributes the surge in sales at its Queen Street location in central Auckland to the rapidly growing demand for its products.

The company's strategy extends beyond the shores of New Zealand, as it is currently operating in the Oceania region, including Fiji. Plans are underway to further expand its operations into Papua New Guinea and other markets across the South Pacific. This expansion comes as the company has already established a strong presence in Central and South America, with 20 stores operating in Mexico City and Monterrey alone.

BBQ's growth trajectory is characterized by its commitment to building a dense global network, not confined to any specific continent. The company's dedication to this strategy was evident in its recent announcement, reaffirming its commitment to providing its unique products to more local consumers across the globe.
