Huey Magoo's has opened a location in Ocoee, Florida, featuring the chain's first drive-thru. The 2,000-square-foot restaurant, which includes indoor and outdoor seating, is operated by Huey Magoo's co-founders and franchisees Matt Armstrong and Thad Hudgens, along with territory manager Bill Weld and GM Josh Hutchens, according to a company press release.

Ocoee marks the fourth Huey Magoo's location in Central Florida for Armstrong and Hudgens, who also own stores in Altamonte Springs, Winter Springs and Apopka, and the 13th Huey Magoo's location to open company-wide. The chain opened its first restaurants in Greater Atlanta (Loganville) and South Florida (Sunrise) this month, and the brand plans to open at least 10 additional stores in Florida, Georgia and Mississippi in 2020.

"Now, with our first drive-thru location, the community of Ocoee can enjoy Huey Magoo's great food, while staying in their car," CEO and President Andy Howard said in the release. "We are extremely thrilled and proud to conclude the year strong and celebrate three grand openings this month and many more on the horizon for next year, furthering our mission to make Huey Magoo's a household name for the greatest tasting chicken tenders."
