Discussion Why are Krystal’s so haphazardly placed?

Post image

Compared to other hamburger joints, Hardee’s, Burger King, McDonald’s and so on, there seems to be no rhyme or reason where a Krystal is located.

Hardee’s seems to aim for small towns

Burger King for small-large cities

McDonald’s, everywhere.

Krystal on the other hand, it seems like they just throw a dart at a map.

Isn’t Krystal only located in the South? I’ve only come across one in my entire life and I’m 40. It was in Florence, AL

For the most Krystal is in the South and White Castle is in the North. There may be a mix close to the dividing line.

Virginia has neither. North Carolina has one Krystal and that's it.
