Tudor’s Biscuit World Corporate Office

Tudor’s Biscuit World was the original idea and concept of Bill and Mae Tudor and their son John Tudor. The first location was opened in 1980 in Charleston, West Virginia.

The company is a franchised restaurant chain that offers freshly baked biscuits in a variety of ways. Some of Tudor’s locations are shared with Gino’s East Pizza chain.

There are currently 70 franchised locations, mainly in West Virginia, but also in Florida, Kentucky, and Ohio.

In late 2021, some locations in West Virginia began organizing unions in hopes of better wages. The company is pushing back against unionization, saying it offered higher than minimum wages.

In early 2022, the union push was given a NO vote and a few employees stated that they were fired for voting yes.

In August 2023, the company gave a donation of more than $42,000 to the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

Kid to Kid Corporate Office

When Shauna Sloan was a young mother, she was on a tight budget, so most of her children’s clothing items and toys came from thrift stores or yard sales. She wished that there was a single location where she could not only shop for items just for her children but where she could sell her gently used children’s items as well.

Sloan created the Kid to Kid franchise in 1992. The company buys and sells children’s items, everything from diapers to toys, cribs to bicycles.

Kid to Kid prides itself on being environmentally friendly, with a very low carbon footprint. By buying a used pair of jeans, a person saves the 10,000 gallons of water it takes to grow the cotton to make denim fabrics.

The Sloans opened their first store in Sandy, Utah. They opened a second store within the year, with the first franchise location opening in 1994.

The company currently has 100 franchised locations.

Kid to Kid maintains a corporate office in North Salt Lake City, Utah.

Western Sizzlin Buffet

In 1961-1962, Nicholas Pascarella was traveling the US in search of cheap land on which to build a restaurant. His car had a flat tire in Augusta, Georgia. The employees at the tire repair shop convinced Pascarella that he should purchase land there to build his restaurant.

The first Western Sizzlin Buffet restaurant opened in Agusta, Georgia, in February 1962. Today, the company has about 46 franchises in 13 states and is best known for its unique steaks.

Pascarella believed that “If searing the bottom of the steak made it juicy, adding flames to the top would make them twice as good.” This lead to the company’s renowned searing process trademarked as the FlameKist steak.

Due to the coronavirus, some franchisees were forced to close permanently in 2020.

The company operates as a subsidiary of Biglari Holdings, which is owned by the current CEO Sardar Biglari. Biglari Holdings also owns the Steak N Shake restaurant chain.

Western Sizzlin maintains a corporate office in Roanoake, Virginia.
