Fuku hits Vegas arena | Fast Casual

Fuku, a spicy fried chicken fast casual concept developed by David Chang, has opened a concession location at T-Mobile Arena, the home of the National Hockey Leauge’s Vegas Golden Knights and Ultimate Fighting Championship in Las Vegas.

“Las Vegas is a priority growth market for us as we continue to expand the Fuku presence, and we’re excited for this opportunity at T-Mobile Arena to not only include a professional hockey team for the first time and reach the Las Vegas community and fans but also continue our long-standing relationship and successful partnerships with Levy Restaurants,” Claudia Lezcano, CEO of Fuku, said in a company press release.

The Fuku concession has already exceeded sales expectations since it opened several months earlier. Located on the Upper Concourse, this marks the fourth concession partnership between Fuku and Levy Restaurants along with other locations at Barclay’s Center in Brooklyn, New York, U.S. Open in Flushing Meadows, New York and FedExField in Landover, Maryland.

“We are proud to welcome Fuku to the T-Mobile Arena family,” Sally Bae, SVP of Global Partnerships for AEG in Las Vegas, said in the release. “This exciting addition to our concession lineup further enhances the fan experience at our arena, providing a delectable and diverse new dining option. Fuku’s reputation for quality and flavor aligns perfectly with our commitment to offering the best to our guests as they enjoy our world-class events at T-Mobile Arena.”
