FAT Brands to Open 10 New Stores in Iraq

By John Lee.

FAT (Fresh. Authentic. Tasty.) Brands Inc., parent company of Great American Cookies and Marble Slab Creamery, has announced a development agreement to open ten co-branded stores across Iraq over the next five years. The partnership is with Eric Wilson, a 27-year U.S. military veteran who previously served in Iraq.

Taylor Wiederhorn, Chief Development Officer of FAT Brands, said the company continues to build its presence in Iraq, where it already operates seven locations. He expressed confidence that the launch of Great American Cookies and Marble Slab Creamery will succeed given the growing demand for American brands and Wilson's commitment as a local operator.

Founded in 1977, Great American Cookies is known as the creator of the Original Cookie Cake and for its signature chocolate chip cookie recipe, along with brownies and Double Doozies™ - icing-filled cookie sandwiches. Marble Slab Creamery, a pioneer in the ice cream industry for over 40 years, introduced the frozen slab technique and offers homemade, small-batch ice cream with free mix-ins, shakes, and ice cream cakes.
