In-N-Out said it's working on plans to build a patty production facility and distribution center in Colorado Springs to support future restaurants in that state.
The company said it does not yet have a timeline for the construction of the support facilities or future restaurants. It also did not elaborate on the number of locations in the works for Colorado.
