PRLog (Press Release) –
Apr 26, 2008 – Following Hooters Australia's successful launch of the Hooters brand in
Parramatta Sydney in 2006 and Mermaid Beach on the Gold Coast early last
year, their third location in Cronulla, Sydney's Sutherland Shire will
join more than 435 Hooters restaurants in over 24 countries worldwide to
become part of one of the fastest growing international restaurant
chains.
Expansion is a key focus for Hooters with local plans to open in
Campbelltown and Penrith NSW, Auckland New Zealand, Brisbane and Perth
by the end of 2009. Internationally Hooters plans to open in India,
Colombia, South Africa, Guam and Dubai over the next two years.
"We believe Hooters winning dining concept coupled with the newest
Hooters Girl recruits will be a big hit in the Shire" said Dah Lee,
Chief Officer of Hooters Australia & New Zealand "People are always
trying to knock off our brand but no one can imitate the real Hooters
dining experience and we are confident everyone in the Shire will enjoy
their very own beachside Hooters restaurant".
Hooters Cronulla will be located at Shop 3, 3 - 7 The Kingsway, Cronulla
and will offer the Shire non stop sports from every angle on over 30 TV
screens, ice cold beverages, rocking tunes and an open kitchen serving
great value food all delivered by our own world famous Hooters Girls.
The Hooters menu which has been adapted for the local Australian market
will include items such the signature chicken wings, aged grain fed
steaks, BBQ ribs, fresh green salads, grilled seafood and Hooters
signature burger.
Over twenty girls will be trained this week by a team of Hooters Girl
Trainers from Parramatta NSW, Mermaid Beach QLD and America to wear the
famous white singlet and orange running shorts to work at the newest
restaurant in the Australian chain. The Shire Hooters Girls will join
more than 20,000 Hooters Girls worldwide in the most exciting career
development opportunities in the industry and the opportunity to compete
in the annual Hooters Honey Contest at Hooters Cronulla on Thursday 29
May 2008 for their chance to represent Australia in the 12th Annual
Hooters International Swimsuit Pageant in Miami Florida against 120
Hooters Girls from around the world.
Hooters Cronulla will celebrate its grand opening with a preview party
this Saturday night (April, 26) with local sports stars, businesses and
stakeholders being invited for one of the first glimpses of Hooters
Cronulla. The party will also feature photographs with the new Hooters
Girls and donations going to Hooters Cronulla's charitable partner the
Sylvanvale Foundation in Kirrawee NSW.
Hooters Cronulla opens to the public at midday on Monday 28 April 2008.
