The Apple Gold Group, one of the original five Applebee’s Franchisees, was founded in 1984 to develop and operate Applebee's restaurants in North Carolina, opening its first Neighborhood Grill and Bar in North Carolina in 1985. Since then, the company has expanded its territory to include Oklahoma, Arkansas and most recently South Carolina, and currently operates 86 restaurants in those four states. The Apple Gold Group strives to be a recognized leader in both the casual dining industry and in local charitable fundraising.
