If Crif Dogs puts their truck on the old Billy's lot, that will be their 3rd location. If that's not a franchise, I don't know what is.
No Crif Dogs NYC!

I know you have a weird anti-anti-7-11 hard-on, but the word "franchise" has a very specific meaning in the business context. But you probably know that.
