Big Dave's Cheesesteaks is charging full-speed ahead with its national expansion, cementing its supply chain infrastructure through a double-shot of strategic partnerships that prioritize both authenticity and scale. It's joining forces with Amoroso's Baking Co. and Philly's Best Steak Company, ensuring that as the brand spreads from coast to coast, the "Philly experience" stays perfectly consistent in every location, said founder and CEO Derrick Hayes.
"As we grow, it's critical that our infrastructure grows with us," Hayes said in a company press release. "This partnership allows us to protect the integrity of our product while supporting our franchisees with a dependable, national supply solution."
The partnership with Philly's Best Steak Company establishes it as the brand's official national protein supplier. The deal integrates a Halal-certified protein program into Big Dave's supply chain, a move designed to boost operational efficiency and eliminate menu variability. Philly's Best, which manufactures its products in Philadelphia, was selected specifically for its commitment to transparent sourcing and high-quality standards.
"A true Philly cheesesteak starts with the right ingredients, and Big Dave's doesn't cut corners," Zafeiris Akranis, president of Philly's Best Steak Company, said in a company press release. "We're proud to be part of their tremendous growth."
