Gold Star Chili offers prospective franchise owners world-class hot dog franchise opportunities by serving as leaders and innovators in the fast-casual restaurant sector. It doesn’t hurt that our coneys are the best in the business.

WHY GOLD STAR CHILI

The Gold Star Chili story is unique in that it was started by four Jordanian immigrant brothers who came to the U.S. to create a better life for themselves and their families. They brought with them a special, delicious chili recipe and a passion for hospitality. They worked hard, shared their formula for success with younger family members and franchisees alike, and built the successful family-focused business we know today.

For burgeoning franchise owners who are interested in getting involved with hot dog franchise opportunities, there is nothing better than Gold Star Chili, a family-forward brand that prioritizes your success.
