CEO. The team behind Newk's Franchise Company, LLC has a special talent for developing innovative restaurant concepts that
not only meet consumer's current needs, but anticipate their future needs as well. As the founders of McAlister's Deli, Don
Newcomb, Debra Bryson and Chris Newcomb pioneered the fast casual restaurant concept, defining and energizing the fastest-growing
segment in the restaurant industry.
After providing a solid foundation and
establishing strong upward growth for McAlister's Deli, they sold the successful chain to focus on creating the future of
fast casual dining: The Newk's Express Café concept has been developed and refined to meet the needs of consumers and
franchise operators alike. For consumers, Newk's Express Café units provide a tantalizing variety of made-to-order
menu choices, available for comfortable in-café dining or for convenient pick-up. For franchise owners, it's a streamlined,
low labor operation that's designed for efficiency, site adaptability and multiple revenue opportunities.
