I live in Massachusetts and we don't have a White Castle...Why is that? If a franchise is profitable why limit it to only a few states?!

Their busness model might not have to do with expanding. Not everyone is in it to make a fortune.

Some companies I think feel that the more they expand the lower quality of the food, even though there are procedures in place on how to properly season the meatm fries, etc.
I really wish that they would get a In & Out in Washington state, and a Sonic closer than a 7 hour drive.

There are several factors involved in expanding. First of all, if it is a franchise, you need to be able to service and supply the locations. If you have a central supply warehouse, you have to allow for increased transportation costs. You also have to consider quality control and management! The further you get from the headquarters, the more it costs for supervision of the location.
You also have to consider the costs of doing business in each location. Mass is not very friendly to businesses, with the required heath insurance costs, and each town making up their own rules as to when a business can open!
Business look at all these factors when they decide where to locate!

We lived in Texas for a few years and now are back in Pennsylvania. I wish they had Whataburger's outside of Texas/Louisiana. The one fast food place I miss from being there.
