LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- Papa John's announced the signing of two large franchise agreements to open more than 100 stores in the Northeastern U.S. over the next several years.
According to a news release, 100 of those stores will be located in New York City and the surrounding areas of Brooklyn, the Bronx, Long Island and Queens.
