K-Mac took over territory that included two KFCs in Rogers and one each in Bentonville, Siloam Springs and Fayetteville (at 2117 W. We were unable to reach anyone at K-Mac for comment. Mosesso said BRM’s Fayetteville store can seat 106 diners. Mosesso said BRM is looking to open a second store in Fayetteville, probably in the vicinity of Crossover Road and Mission Boulevard, but that could be several years from now. Mosesso said BRM chose not to reopen at the Mathias Drive location, in part because that location is a “power pumper” store, meaning it has gasoline pumps in addition to an eatery.

The Sunset Avenue store was closed a year ago when Newmark Foods opened a KFC at 1120 Mathias Drive in Springdale, near the intersection of Interstate 540 and U.S. The buildings would require extensive renovation totaling about $750,000 for both, he said. Those two Springdale buildings are at 600 South Thompson St. Mosesso said he was negotiating to buy two former KFC locations owned by Amresco Inc., a finance company in Idaho, but he didn’t know if those sales would go through. And a second Springdale store will be opened later. Mosesso said he is “aggressively seeking a location in Springdale,” probably on South Thompson St. BRM is leasing that building from Mathias Properties of Springdale. Five KFC stores were located in that area.īRM reopened the KFC at 2992 North College Ave. K-Mac has taken over the KFC franchising territory in Rogers, Bentonville, Siloam Springs and western Fayetteville.

The eight restaurants were closed in December when Newmark Foods Inc., a KFC franchisee in New Mexico, filed for bankruptcy. Some of those restaurants will be reopened and others will be renovated or relocated, said Bob Mosesso, who is a partner with Billy Ball at BRM Foods.īRM acquired the turf in Springdale and eastern Fayetteville and plans to reopen the three KFCs in those cities within the next seven months, although the two Springdale stores may be relocated. The territory that includes eight closed KFC restaurants in Northwest Arkansas is being taken over by two Arkansas KFC franchisees, K-Mac Enterprises Inc.
