And right now, our plan is to have a master franchise model in Australia,” Ms Pringle said. “Private equity that wants to come in for five years, and then turn it – that we’re not interested in. “We will have Australian ingredients. We are always open to looking at how a strategy that works in one market might work in another.” That’s an important thing – to really work within the market. We sold our Dave’s Single [burger] and our signature frosty dessert,” Ms Pringle said. “We have to be careful with what that timeline is exactly because we want to pick the right partner.

And that takes a little bit of time. “We believe Australia is a lucrative market for long-term growth.
