Suriname, South America has its first Chuck E Cheese FEC, it was announced this week.
FEC and pizza restaurant chain Chuck E Cheese has opened its first location in Suriname, South America. David McKillips, CEO of CEC Entertainment said: “Given the geographical separation of the Caribbean market, the master franchise agreement gives existing strong franchise partners the autonomy to develop neighbouring, smaller and yet culturally similar markets.”
Joanna Rostant, director at Yay Entertainment, franchise holder for Trinidad and Tobago, who has the franchise rights in Suriname and Guyana as well, said: “We have taken our experience of operating in Trinidad and Tobago for over eight years, to our Caribbean neighbours and that permits us to export goods, services and human expertise.”
Yay partnered with Blue Falcon NV of Suriname for the new venue in Paramaribo, an 11,000sq.ft FEC with an interactive dance floor, party rooms and VR arena – the first in the region.
