ORLANDO, FL--- Cuhaci & Peterson Architects has been awarded a contract to design a new prototype facility for Tampa-based Checkers Drive-In Restaurants, the nation’s largest chain of double drive-thru restaurants with more than 820 facilities in 29 states and the District of Columbia.
Lonnie Peterson, (top right photo) chairman of Cuhaci & Peterson, said the redesign will reflect new Checkers menu items and a new positioning strategy.
“Most Checkers Restaurants are freestanding facilities that average about 700 square feet of space,” Peterson said. “The new prototype, which will likely be adopted nationwide, positions the restaurant as an endcap facility of approximately 1,500 square feet.”
Endcap facilities, which will feature Checkers’ prized drive-through along with dine-in facilities, are located at the end of a retail strip center. Peterson said the new endcap design will provide Checkers franchise owners more flexibility to lease space in existing strip retail centers.
