Bojangles'
Bojangles'® began in 1977. The core menu then was the same as it is today -- spicy, Cajun-style chicken served with fresh buttermilk biscuits, and one-of-a-kind fixin's. The light, buttery made-from-scratch biscuits are also the basis for the best breakfast in the industry. Over the years a few new items such as Chicken Supremes™ and Buffalo Bites® have been added in response to industry trends. Each new idea has been extensively tested to make sure it fits with the Bojangles' concept and meets their high quality and taste standards. Customer research and sales prove people appreciate the Bojangles' difference.

Friendly's
When the first Friendly's Ice Cream shop in Springfield, Massachusetts was opened
in 1935, they created a place where family, friends and neighbors
could enjoy delicious food and ice cream, friendly service and
reasonable prices. That commitment is still part of everything
they do. It's why they still make all their ice cream using milk
from area dairies and their authentic hot fudge with imported Dutch
cocoa. It's why they carefully choose and prepare ingredients for
everything in their made-to-order menus, from
breakfasts to
Burgers and
SuperMelt™ Sandwiches. And why they offer a 100% satisfaction
guarantee. Most of all they’re proud that Friendly's has been at
the heart of so many warm memories. And proud to be inspiring more
memories for their guests every day.

Quaker
Steak and Lube
The year was 1974, the country was in the midst
of its first gas crisis and the price of gasoline was skyrocketing.
Speed limits
were soon to be set at 55 M.P.H. nationwide, gas stations were
closing and the call went out to develop cars that got better mileage...but
what to do with those old gas stations and high-powered muscle
cars? Enter George "Jig" Warren III and Gary "Moe" Meszaros
to save the day. Well maybe not necessarily the entire day, but
certainly one old gas station and a bunch of muscle cars, by turning
the abandoned station into the Quaker Steak & Lube, a "Cook
Your Own Steak" restaurant. They gave the cars, which included
a 1936 Chevrolet, frozen in time on the original hydraulic grease
rack, a loving home. The concept was so successful that Jig and
Moe were able to hire a cook so their customers no longer had to
do their own cooking and the menu was expanded to include a variety
of family-friendly foods, including chicken wings. It is from these
beginnings that the Quaker Steak & Lube family of restaurants
began. Today, "The Lube" serves over 50 million wings
annually, has 16 bottled sauces for retail sale, has won the title
of "Best Wings USA," and has over 100 local, national,
and international awards for their sauce recipes. With 20 current
locations in seven states, "The Lube" is still rescuing
muscle cars, vintage cars, trucks and a vast selection of custom
and antique motorcycles, giving them good homes hanging from the
walls and ceilings in each restaurant.

The Creed - We believe in the goods we
merchandise, in ourselves and in our ability to render satisfaction.
We believe that honest goods can be sold to honest people by
honest
methods. We believe in working, not waiting; in laughing, not weeping;

hope to do, and in the sure reward the future holds. We believe in
courtesy, in kindness, in generosity, in cheer, in friendship,
and in honest competition. Walgreens is still working to do things
this way – even
