October 30, 2019

Chicken Salad Chick is on a roll, saying Tuesday that Q3 marked its 15th consecutive quarter of positive same-store sales growth. 

"The third quarter was incredibly special to us, as Chicken Salad Chick's founder Stacy Brown became a franchise owner of the brand she created 11 years ago and opened her very own restaurant in her hometown of Rome. Having our founder invest in the brand she started is the ultimate testament to its character, stability and unlimited potential for success," CEO Scott Deviney said in a company press release. "In addition to Stacy's Chick, we opened our doors in six other communities and welcomed several new franchisees who will be opening their own Chicks soon. We're thrilled to have such outstanding and dedicated owners by our side as we continue to grow Chicken Salad Chick's brand footprint."

As part of its growth strategy, Chicken Salad Chick is targeting franchise development throughout the South and Midwest regions, specifically in Virginia, Texas, Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas and Missouri, and is seeking individuals with an entrepreneurial spirit who possess high energy and enthusiasm about the brand, marketing skills and the ability to manage a strong team, according to the release. 

Interested candidates should have a minimum net worth of $600,000 and liquid assets of at least $150,000 and can expect the initial investment to be approximately $515,000-$683,000 with a $50,000 initial franchise fee, according to the release.

Founded in Auburn, Alabama, in 2008, Chicken Salad Chick has more than 135 restaurants in 16 states.
