In-N-Out Burger eyes expansion into Arkansas, Mississippi, and Oklahoma

In-N-Out Burger is considering expanding into three new states: Arkansas, Mississippi, and Oklahoma. This potential move aligns with the company's strategy to extend its reach eastward, building upon recent expansions into Tennessee and planned locations in New Mexico. The owner, Lynsi Snyder, indicated that these new states fall within the existing distribution network originating from Texas, making the expansion logistically feasible. The chain also continues to grow within California and saw significant domestic sales growth last year. AI
