Ian Mahinmi plans to open his second Steak ‘n Shake restaurant in a year since becoming a franchisee. His newest location will be in Bretigny Sur Orge, about 40 minutes south of Paris.
Mahinmi is 31 years old and spent the last two seasons playing for the Washington Wizards. But, before then, he spent four good years in Indianapolis … where there are plenty of Steak ‘n Shakes across Central Indiana.
“I met with the big boss of Steak ‘n Shake and we started a relationship back then,” Mahinmi said last year. “Eventually, it evolved into me opening up my own franchise. They are really going to enjoy it.”
Mahinmi has been an entrepreneur for years, launching his own clothing line: French Deal.
While back home in France, Mahinmi also held his second annual basketball camp last week.
