We've been around forever!

Our founder, Carl N. Karcher was born January 16, 1917, in Upper Sandusky, Ohio. He left school in the eighth grade to assist his parents on the family farm.

On July 17, 1941, Carl and his wife, Margaret, purchased a hot dog cart for $326 using $15 cash and $311 borrowed on his 1941 Plymouth Super Deluxe. Their first day’s sales came to a total of $14.75.

Their business grew quickly, and on January 16, 1945, they opened Carl’s Drive-In Barbecue in Anaheim, California. In 1956, the first Carl’s Jr.® restaurant opened.
