From the shores of Saharistan to the formerly apartheid halls of Die Boerstaat, a small seafood startup restaurant has found its success throughout coastal and landlocked countries with franchising. It is Blackbeard's Treasure Chest, and features a pirate theme. It offers a large variety of seafood for any nation thanks to its efficient shipping system.
The heart of Blackbeard's success is its fleet of chilled An-72s and its flotilla of fishing boats and private fishfarms. It is all integrated electronically and provides the Chest with tons of fresh fish at its disposal. Even deep inland in Leafanistan, fresh saltwater fish are available and Blackbeard's Treasure Chest is opting to expand. It is now searching for places to expand its reach and is sending representatives to capitalist nations sow the seeds of success.

Press Release to interested Parties and potential Franchisers
Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,
Blackbeard's Treasure Chest is the newest fast food franchise to hit NationStates, and we are hoping that you too can be a part of that success. We have just opened our 50,000th restaurant in Leafanistan and her colonies and now hope to expand to your nation!
At your disposal is our large menu and our casual eating atmosphere and our national famous electronic distribution network which ensures, frozen precooked foods for our 'Express' line of foods to fresh, chilled fish for those who prefer a healthier alternative, or wish for a more traditional meal than those that can be found betwixt a bun.
On average it costs a mere 22,000 USD initial investment to open a restaurant and you too can be a businessman or businesswoman, masters of your own destiny. Your choices range from our rapid and friendly 'Treasure Chest Express' which offers our 'Express' line up for people on the go and don't have much time to sit down and eat, 'Blackbeard's Galley' a more traditional sit down restaurant that features our flagship sandwiches, like the Spanish Doubloon with a fish patty, fresh lettuce and tomatoes, and a spicy Chiptole sauce, along with our fresh fish choices, to our 'Treasure Chest' restaurants which offer both so those on the run can grab it and go and others can sit down and enjoy their meals.
For those who cannot afford to open the restaurant but wish to join the gravy boat? Purchase stock in our fine business and you too can be rolling in paper doubloons with us.
So what are you waiting for? Grab your sea legs and join our nautical crew and set sail for riches?
