Jack in the Box, a national fast-food chain, signed an agreement with entrepreneur Niraj Patel to build five new restaurants in Michigan.
Patel has been based in west Michigan for many years and says the agreement will result in new restaurant development in the southwest and southcentral sections of the state, including Kalamazoo, Calhoun, and Kent counties.
“We are excited to announce five Jack in the Box locations in our west Michigan area over the span of five years,” says Patel. “We will open the first Jack in the Box location in Battle Creek. This is very exciting because we can give our community more food options and help provide 40 to 50 new jobs per location.”
Jack in the Box’s menu features burgers, tacos, chicken sandwiches, milkshakes, breakfast, and late-night snacking options. The new locations will offer dine-in, drive-thru, and mobile ordering options, and will be open 24 hours per day.
