According to recent reporting in Eater, Austin hot dog pop-up Zee’s Wiener System is eyeing expansion as it has launched a crowdfunding investment campaign to help owner and chef Zak Drummond achieve this goal.
Reportedly, Mr. Drummond will be fundraising through Honeycomb Credit rather than the GoFundMe path “because of the directness of people being connected to Zee’s.”
“It makes me feel good to engage with the folks who have supported my business up to this point and ask them to be a part of the next phase of The System,” he said.
The goal is to find at least $50,000 to grow Zee’s through “expanding its events capabilities, hiring staffers, and getting better products” and eventually, he’d like to “give folks a place where they can reliably find me and the System,” he writes to Eater, “whether that’s a trailer or a truck or a kiosk or a brick-and-mortar, I’m not entirely sure.”
What Now Austin briefly reached Mr. Drummond and will update the article with more specifics as soon as comment is provided.
