“We value our partnership with the bb.q family, and our top priority is to provide each of them with the education and training needed to thrive as operators of a bb.q Chicken restaurant,” bb.q Chicken USA CEO Joseph Kim said in the release. “The franchisor thrives when the franchisee thrives. That’s a core value for bb.q Chicken.”
