HISTORY
The Applebee's chain was started by Bill and T.J.
Palmer who opened their first restaurant, T.J.
Applebee’s Rx for Edibles & Elixirs, in
Decatur, Georgia on January 1, 1980. After
opening their second restaurant the pair sold
their company to W. R. Grace and Company in
1983. As part of the transaction, Bill Palmer was
named president of the Applebee's Division an
indirect subsidiary of W. R. Grace and Company.
In that capacity, Palmer guided the operation
from its entrepreneurial beginnings to a full-
fledged franchise system. He became an
Applebee's franchisee in 1985 and today owns
more than three dozen Applebee's restaurants.
In 1986, the name of the concept was changed to
Applebee's Neighborhood Grill & Bar to reflect the
Palmers' original concept of a place people could call
their own.

In 1988, Applebee's International, Inc. became the
restaurant chain's franchiser when Kansas City
franchisees Abe Gustin and John Hamra purchased the
rights to the Applebee's concept from W. R. Grace.[3][4]
Locations that have carside to go usually have two or
three designated parking spaces for such use. This
location is in La Habra, California.
Today, with more than 1,900 restaurants, Applebee's is
the world's largest casual dining restaurant chain. From
1993 to 2005, Applebee's opened 100 or more new
Headquarters in Lenexa (now
called Restaurant Support
Center)
Applebee’s Kansas City-area
headquarters was in
Overland Park, Kansas. In
January 2008 it moved to
neighboring Lenexa, Kansas
per an agreement made in
APPLEBEE’S
HEADQUARTES
Applebee’s Kansas City-area headquarters was in
Overland Park, Kansas. In January 2008 it moved to
neighboring Lenexa, Kansas per an agreement made in 2005
before it was taken over by IHOP (now DineEquity) to a new
175,000-square-foot (16,300 m2) building designed by BNIM
(lured by a 90 percent property tax reduction offer). However
DineEquity has since been downsizing the headquarters
presence as it has begun a strategy of converting its
company-owned restaurants to franchises with a goal of
having 98 percent of its restaurants franchised by 2013. In July
2008 DineEquity sold the headquarters (officially called the
Restaurant Support Center) for $39 million in a sale-leaseback
arrangement. The company has now listed the headquarters
for sale and is reported looking for new space after it was
announced that its headquarters staff of 325 on January 30,
2009 did not meet Lenexa’s requirement that at least 497 be
employed at the headquarters to receive the property tax
abatement.
