Becoming a Runza^® franchisee was one of the best business decisions I have ever made. One of the reasons I was interested in the Runza^® franchise was its reputation for quality products and service. I grew up in Minnesota and had never heard of a Runza^® until I moved to the area. At first, I thought this was just another fast food restaurant until I ate at one. After my first experience, I knew this was no ordinary fast food restaurant. There was something unique about Runza^®. I was amazed you could serve quality food so quickly. Usually, quality & time are not synonymous. This was not the case. I became a loyal customer that day. After several years of dining at Runza^®, I decided to become a franchisee. A well-known investor and philanthropist in the Omaha area once said, "I invest in things I like." What a simple concept. I now own a Runza^® Restaurant in Omaha and am currently looking to add several more.

The Runza^® organization, in my mind, has one of the best and well-run franchises in the nation. The family is still active in the daily operations and hasn't lost touch of its roots. A true story: I have a friend who was a regional manager for one of the largest burger franchises in the nation. Every year, he would come to Omaha and ask the franchisee what is new. They would tell him, "Let’s go to Runza^® and find out."
