- Sonic Corp. (SONC), through its subsidiary Sonic Drive-In, operates and franchises a chain of drive-in fast-food restaurants across the United States, offering a diverse menu of hamburgers including the Sonic Cheeseburger Combo; hot dogs such as the Chili Cheese Coney; chicken sandwiches and tenders; corn dogs; breakfast items like burritos and melts; sides including crinkle-cut fries, tater tots, and Pickle-O's fried pickle slices; and an extensive lineup of beverages and desserts featuring Master Shakes, Sonic Blasts soft-serve treats, slushes, and limeades. Founded in 1953 as Top Hat Drive-In by Troy N. Smith Sr. in Shawnee, Oklahoma, and rebranded Sonic in 1959, the company is headquartered at 300 Johnny Bench Drive in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, with over 3,400 locations primarily in 45 states, the vast majority operated by independent franchisees serving approximately 3 million customers daily via intercom ordering and roller-skating carhops. Acquired by Inspire Brands--parent of Arby's, Buffalo Wild Wings, Jimmy John's, Dunkin', and Baskin-Robbins--in a $2.3 billion transaction completed in 2018, Sonic no longer trades publicly under SONC; recent developments include the 2024 launch of the "Live Free, Eat Sonic" brand platform with refreshed packaging, uniforms, and menu innovations such as new crinkle-cut fries, tangy sauces, value meals, and a Grillo's pickle partnership, alongside ongoing franchise expansions like Guernsey Holdings' addition of multiple Texas locations in 2025 and sponsorships of X Games events to drive traffic and personalization.
