WHO WE ARE

We’re not in the wing business. We’re in the flavor business. It’s been our mission to Serve the World Flavor since we first opened in 1994, and we’re just getting started.

1997 saw the opening of our first brand partner operated Wingstop location, and by 2002 we had served the world one billion wings.

It’s flavor that defines us and has made Wingstop one of the fastest growing brands in the restaurant industry.

Above all else our success is largely due to our people and our core values, or what we call The Wingstop Way of being entrepreneurial, service-minded, fun, and authentic.
