Nathan’s Famous, Inc. and subsidiaries (collectively the “Company” or “Nathan’s”) has historically operated or franchised a chain of retail fast food restaurants featuring the “Nathan’s World Famous Beef Hot Dog”, crinkle-cut French-fried potatoes and a variety of other menu offerings.

The Company is also the owner of the Arthur Treacher’s Fish & Chips brand. Arthur Treacher’s main product is its "Original Fish & Chips" product consisting of fish fillets coated with a special batter prepared under a proprietary formula, deep-fried golden brown, and served with English-style chips and corn meal "hush puppies." The Company considers itself to be a brand marketer of its products to the foodservice and retail industries, pursuant to its various business structures. Nathan’s has also pursued co-branding and co-hosting initiatives.

At March 30, 2025, the Company’s restaurant system included four Company-owned restaurants (including one seasonal unit) in the New York City metropolitan area and 230 franchised units, located in 17 states and 12foreign countries.
