Growth like this takes more than momentum. It takes people, partnership, and a whole lot of heart. ❤️ Opening Day for Wingstop Peoria is in the books and ready to Sauce n' Toss the Tulsa community! This group is ready to Bring The Flavor! Vibe Restaurants is proud to celebrate the opening of our 175th restaurant overall and our 94th Wingstop with the launch of Wingstop Restaurants Inc. Peoria. This marks our 5th restaurant opening this year, and every one of them represents an incredible amount of effort, coordination, and commitment across the Vibe Tribe. From the hourly team members serving guests each day, to our field leaders, trainers, support teams, development partners, and executive leadership, this kind of growth only happens through true teamwork. A special shoutout to Regional Vice President Chris Gravens, along with Coach Scott Brown and Field Trainer Emma Morell, for helping lead another successful opening. We’re also grateful to the GMs from surrounding markets who stepped in to support and help bring this restaurant to life. And the momentum is only building. With restaurant #200 overall and Wingstop #100 now in sight, we could not be more proud of what our teams have accomplished, or more motivated for what’s ahead. Here’s to the people powering the growth, the culture driving the work, and the next big milestones on the horizon. #VibeRestaurants #VibeTribe #Wingstop #RestaurantGrowth #GrandOpening #Teamwork #RestaurantLeadership Irfaan Lalani, Faisal Lalani, Michael Trifari

At Vibe Restaurants, creating meaningful community moments is part of who we are. 🧡 Our Whataburger Weatherford team recently hosted its 3rd Annual Easter Egg Hunt, bringing families together for a fun tradition ahead of Easter! With support from Brand Vice President Charla Saberi-nikou, this event reflected the kind of connection and community spirit we’re proud to foster across our brands. From egg hunting and Easter Bunny photos to time spent with local families, the day was all about creating #WhataMoments that will last a lifetime. A big thank you to the team members who helped bring it all to life and to everyone who came out to celebrate with us. We’re proud to serve communities in ways that go beyond the restaurant and create experiences families can look forward to year after year. #VibeRestaurants #Whataburger #Weatherford #Community #WhataMoments #EasterEggHunt Michael Trifari, Irfaan Lalani, Faisal Lalani

Last week in Oklahoma, we certified a new class of Coach Trainers at Vibe Restaurants. These leaders were selected because they consistently represent the VIBE values, protect our culture, and elevate their brand in their Wingstop Restaurants Inc. every day. Becoming a Certified Coach Trainer is more than a title. It is a responsibility. These individuals are now entrusted with preparing and developing our future coaches, ensuring they are equipped to lead with confidence, consistency, and accountability. This is how culture scales. This is how standards stay strong. This is how we grow intentionally. A special thank you to Michael McDonald, our Sr. Vice President of Operations Services, and Chris Gravens, our Regional Vice President at Vibe Wingstop, for being onsite to lead the certification process. Leadership presence matters. Investment in people matters. Please join me in congratulating our newest Certified Coach Trainers: HB Hall Kai Baker Erick Coreas Kailey Duggan Scott Brown Tabrycen Cochran Proud of this group and excited for the impact they will have across our system. #VibeRestaurants #LeadershipDevelopment #CoachTheCoach #Wingstop #CultureMatters #GrowingLeaders Michael Trifari, Irfaan Lalani, Faisal Lalani, Shalin Patel
