Press Releases
Published: 29 May 2017
(Dallas,
TX)—In celebration of National Police Week, the nation’s largest barbecue chain
announces a special opportunity for all first responders to join Dickey’s
Barbecue Pit by offering a franchise fee discount. In collaboration with
Dickey’s charitable organization, Barbecue, Boots & Badges, all first
responders nationwide are offered $5000 off the initial Dickey’s Barbecue Pit
franchise fee, a discount of 33%.
“We
have a strong connection to first responders through Dickey’s charitable
foundation, Barbecue, Boots & Badges, which focuses on serving those who
protect us through local efforts,” said Laura Rea Dickey, CEO of Dickey’s
Barbecue Restaurants, Inc. “At Dickey’s, we strive to partner with franchisees
who are dedicated, contributing members of their local communities, such as
these men and women. Now, during National Police Week, is an ideal time to
launch this opportunity for these important community members to join the Dickey’s
family.”
Similar
to Dickey’s franchise discount for military, this opportunity applies to law
enforcement, firefighters and EMT. Dickey’s recent involvement with first
responders also includes the launch of Barbecue, Boots and Badges’ ‘Invest in a
Vest’ initiative, which aims to reduce risk for police officers by providing
life-saving bullet proof vests and included a kickoff donation of ballistic
plates to Dallas Police Department’s entire gang unit. In addition, Dickey’s has a longstanding offer
of 50% off for first responders that dine in at select locations.
