(Houston, TX) A group of <a href="https://www.dickeys.com/">Dickey’s
Barbecue Pit</a> franchisees and crew members went above and beyond to support
Hurricane Harvey relief efforts in Houston. On average, the team has delivered
food to 5,000 Houstonians and 500 first responders each day.<o:p></o:p>

<o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>

The team in Houston is comprised of Colorado franchisee David Montoya
and his manager Ukiah Ramirez. Montoya is currently planning to open additional
Dickey’s locations in his home state of New Mexico. Also on the team are father
and son duo Shaun and Gene Martin from North Texas. The team has set up shop
outside of an unfinished Houston Dickey’s Barbecue Pit location owned by
Amrinder Toor. <o:p></o:p>

<o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>

“Seeing first-hand the destruction of these communities is incredibly
eye opening and has been an experience none of us will ever forget,” says
Montoya. “Bringing warm meals to those focused on rebuilding their communities
is something that I truly believe is lifting their spirits during this time of
recovery.”<o:p></o:p>

<o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>

Starting out as a team of five, their operation grew when they arrived
in Houston with locals volunteering to help throughout the day. One of the most
prominent volunteers is Congresswoman Sheila Jackson, who assisted the team in
visiting and delivering food to the communities. <o:p></o:p>

<o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>

“We are overwhelmed with the compassion and dedication these
franchisees have demonstrated through supporting our Houston neighbors in their
time of need,” said Laura Rea Dickey, CEO of Dickey’s Barbecue Restaurants,
Inc. “It is times like these that make me even more proud to be a part of the
Dickey’s Barbecue Pit family.” <o:p></o:p>

Dickey’s Barbecue Pit Contributes to Hurricane Harvey Relief Efforts

(Albuquerque, NM) <a href="https://www.dickeys.com/">Dickey’s Barbecue
Pit</a> continues their expansion in New Mexico with the addition of a
three-store development agreement by current Dickey’s franchisees David Montoya
and Soleille Lopez. These locations will be the duo’s first of many in the Land
of Enchantment which they plan on running as a family business. <o:p></o:p>

<o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>

“Dickey’s Barbecue Pit has and always will be a family-run,
family-oriented business and that is something we pride ourselves on,” says
Laura Rea Dickey, CEO of Dickey’s Barbecue Restaurants, Inc. “Having
experienced franchisees eager to open new locations is a testament not only to
the success of our business but the brand as a whole.” <o:p></o:p>

<o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>

As New Mexico natives, Montoya and Lopez looked to open
their first Dickey’s Barbecue Pit location in their home state, but were
offered the opportunity to open a location in Colorado so they took it with
their business partner Robert Moss. After seeing great success in their first
location, they pursued their original plan to open a Dickey’s Barbecue Pit in
New Mexico, which they intend to run with their children.<o:p></o:p>

<o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>

“We originally bought into Dickey’s because the brand is
family oriented and those values are extremely important to us,” says Montoya.
“As our own Dickey’s brand continues to grow, we are proud to serve Dickey’s
delicious barbecue to our communities and look forward to opening even more
locations in the future.” <o:p></o:p>

<o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>

The first of the three locations is slated to open in Albuquerque
Spring of 2018, the second is planned to open in Albuquerque following late
2018 and the last to open in Santa Fe in early 2019. <o:p></o:p>

Franchisees Make Dickey’s Barbecue Pit a Family Affair in New Mexico

Kessie spent years eating at Dickey’s Barbecue Pit and made the brand a

Current Dickey’s Franchisees Open Their Newest Location in San Diego

(Cary, NC) Dickey’s Barbecue Pit plans to open their newest North
Carolina location this Fall in Cary, NC behind the lead of new Owner/Operator,
William DeArmey. A long-time North Carolina resident and former Dickey’s
Barbecue Pit employee, DeArmey and his family are looking forward to bringing a
delicious barbecue option to their community. <o:p></o:p>

<o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>

“At Dickey’s Barbecue Pit, we pride ourselves on serving authentic,
Texas-style barbecue to our community with a side of southern hospitality,”
says Laura Rea Dickey, CEO of Dickey’s Barbecue Restaurants, Inc. “We love that
in an area that has many amazing barbecue options, Dickey’s is still a fan
favorite and is being provided to the community by first-class Owner/Operators like
William DeArmey.” <o:p></o:p>

<o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>

After working at a local Dickey’s Barbecue Pit location for a short six
months, DeArmey decided it was time to open a location of his own. “North
Carolina has delicious barbecue options everywhere, but Dickey’s has the best
barbecue sandwich, hands down,” says DeArmey. “When it came down to if I should
open my own Dickey’s location it was easy; I love the food and I love the
brand.” <o:p></o:p>

Dickey’s Barbecue Pit Opens New Location in Their Home State

(Dallas, TX) <a href="https://www.dickeys.com/">Dickey’s
Barbecue Pit</a> locations
will begin incorporating <a href="https://www.iolap.com/voice">iOLAP’s</a> new Enterprise Voice Platform to
carry out daily business functions in the store. Dickey’s, a known technology
leader in the restaurant industry, is adopting this new platform accelerating
the development, deployment, operations and monitoring of Alexa Skills in the
business environment. <o:p></o:p>

&nbsp;<o:p></o:p>

“In working with iOLAP to
customize this technology for our restaurants, we are giving each of our
franchisees a way to carry out key business functions hands-free in their
kitchens,” says Laura Rea Dickey, CEO of Dickey’s Barbecue Restaurants, Inc.
“At Dickey’s, we are constantly looking for new ways to better our business
along with our slow-smoked barbecue. This new technology means our franchisees
can retrieve key data without having to stop smoking ribs.” <o:p></o:p>

&nbsp;<o:p></o:p>

This new software gives Dickey’s
Owner/Operators the opportunity to have store information a voice-command away,
and is the second phase of Dickey's big data initiative.<o:p></o:p>

 
"Smokestack, our proprietary data platform makes data accessible and
actionable in our restaurants," says Dickey. "By layering in this new
enterprise voice platform, we hope to make data even more restaurant friendly.
We've worked a lot with iOLAP to optimize Alexa for the kitchen from the data
integration to the right placement in the back of house. We've also been
thankful for franchisees that have opted in to further test the
technology."<o:p></o:p>

 
Dickey's Owner/Operators&nbsp;can ask
Alexa for their daily sales metrics, KPI analytics or even when the brisket in
their smoker should be finished smoking. That, coupled with the platform’s
ability to perform&nbsp;inventory analysis, food safety reminders and waste
management controls&nbsp;will help Owner/Operators better manage their
business.<o:p></o:p>

<o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>

<span style="background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;">“I have been with Dickey’s for over 20
years, and I never would have thought we would be using an Alexa to carry out
parts key of the business,” says Owner/Operator Dale Smith. “I can continue to
do what is important, which is smoking meats, while Alexa can easily give me
the business metrics I need.”

Dickey’s Barbecue Pit Fires up Delivery Partnerships Nationwide

(Buford, GA) <a href="https://www.dickeys.com/">Dickey’s Barbecue Pit</a>
Owner/Operator Shannon Skains plans to open his second location in Buford,
Georgia. As a native Texan, Skains wanted to bring a piece of Texas to his new
home state. After a highly successful opening of his first Dickey’s location in
Flowery Branch in 2014, the slow-smoked barbecue quickly became a community
favorite and Skains began planning how he could serve up more across
Georgia.&nbsp;&nbsp; <o:p></o:p>

<o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>

“Dickey’s Barbecue Pit has been family owned and operated since 1941
and we consider each of our owners as a part of our family,” said Laura Rea
Dickey, CEO of Dickey’s Barbecue Restaurants, Inc. “We are always proud when
our current owners decide to invest more in us and our brand to open new
locations in their communities.” <o:p></o:p>

<o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>

Skains’ newest location will open its doors in Buford, by the Mall of
Georgia. “We are looking forward to the opportunity to serve more of the
community with our second location,” said Skains. “Barbecue is an
underdeveloped segment in the area and we are proud to grow this Texas brand in
Georgia.”<o:p></o:p>

<o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>

Skains has spent most of his career in the restaurant industry, with a
longterm goal of owning his own restaurant. When researching franchising opportunities,
Dickey’s was the perfect fit due to Skains’ love for barbecue and his deep-seeded
Texas roots. Skains runs both locations with his partner and wife, Asia, and
they plan to open at least one more location in the coming years. <o:p></o:p>
