About The Checkers and Rallys Franchise

Founded by James E. Mattei in Mobile, Alabama in 1986, Checkers and Rally’s is one of the largest hamburger drive-thru restaurant franchises in the United States. Checkers famously acquired Rally’s in 1999, increasing its outreach. There are over 850 Checkers and Rally’s locations in the U.S. with franchisees owning over 575 of them.

Checkers and Rally’s has learned to abandon the dining room in favor of fast drive-thru and walk-up service. Known for its milkshakes, burgers, and french fries, Checkers and Rally’s proves that the drive-thru setup can be incredibly effective. Their franchisees seem to enjoy a system that places its focus on making fresh, quality food for customers.
