Sonny’s BBQ was founded in April 17, 1968 by Floyd “Sonny” Tillman and his wife Lucille. They started with a single location in Gainesville, Florida. The company began franchising nine years later in 1977 with a menu consisting of pork, beef, ribs, chicken, beans and other sides.〔 〕 In 1988, Sonny’s BBQ had grown to 77 restaurants across six states and Tillman sold the company to outside investors. In 1991, Bob Yarmuth purchased the company.〔(【引用サイトリンク】accessdate=September 7, 2014 )〕 During the 2000s, Sonny’s was the largest BBQ restaurant chain in the United States, with about 150 locations across nine states. In 2011, the company had 125 operating franchised restaurants. In 2012, the company moved its headquarters to Winter Park, Florida and in 2013, the company changed its name from Sonny’s Real Pit-Bar-B-Q to Sonny’s BBQ.〔 Sonny Tillman’s birthday is celebrated as a special event by the restaurant each August 14. Despite selling the franchise, Tillman retained ownership of the original Sonny’s BBQ until 2011, when he relinquished his franchisee agreement. Afterwards he continued to attend grand openings, sometimes appearing in commercials, and participating in other events.〔(【引用サイトリンク】accessdate=September 6, 2014 )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】accessdate=September 4, 2014 )〕 Events held by Sonny’s include its Random Acts of BBQ events, where individual restaurants provide a BBQ feast for community volunteers and volunteer organizations.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Sonny’s Real Pit BBQ feeds 120 to mark 20th anniversary )〕
