Hooters of America, Inc.
The chicken wings aren't the only spicy items at Hooters. Hooters of America operates and franchises more than 450 Hooters restaurants in about 40 states and more than 25 other countries. The beach-themed bar-and-grills catering to sports fans are known for their spicy chicken wings and their hostesses, who dress in the chain's trademark bright orange short shorts and tight T-shirts. Other menu items include chili, burgers, sandwiches, and beer. The company operates about 120 locations and franchises the rest. Hooters of America is controlled by CEO Coby Brooks, the son of the late Robert Brooks who built the chain. Six friends, none of whom had any restaurant experience, opened the first Hooters in 1983.
