Colorado Entrepreneur Brings Texas-Style Barbecue to Boulder
Press Releases
Published: 20 Oct 2017
(Boulder, CO) Dickey’s Barbecue Pit makes plans to bring a delicious new dining option to Boulder, CO in Spring
- The new location will be opened by barbecue fanatic and Dickey’s Barbecue
“We want to congratulate Brandon Gerrick on joining the Dickey’s
Barbecue Pit family,” says Laura Rea Dickey, CEO of Dickey’s Barbecue
Restaurants, Inc. “With experienced, passionate franchisees such as Brandon,
the Dickey’s brand will continue to grow and be successful.”
Originally from Chicago, Gerrick recently moved to Colorado and
immediately noticed a void of delicious, Texas-style barbecue in Boulder. As he
has been in the restaurant industry for 18 years, Gerrick decided it was time
to open one of his own and found a home in Dickey’s after researching
franchising concepts.
“Dickey’s is a great brand that has delicious food and a solid
franchising concept, which is why I chose to make Dickey’s my first business to
own,” says Gerrick. “Boulder was at the top of my list for where to put my
first Dickey’s location and when the territory was available I jumped at the
opportunity. I greatly look forward to opening up our store and serving the
residents of my new community.”
