Chicken Salad Chick has completed its largest franchise expansion deal yet in New York, securing 25-unit agreements in the Northeast market.
Operated by a multi-unit owner, the fast-casual restaurants will be located across several key markets in the state, including Albany, Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, and the Upper Hudson Valley.
“New York represents a tremendous growth opportunity, and we’re excited to partner with a seasoned operator to introduce our brand to guests across the state,” said Mark Verges, VP of franchise development at Chicken Salad Chick.
“Our concept continues to resonate nationwide, and we’re confident in its ability to perform well in new markets.”
The announcement follows Chicken Salad Chick’s decision to open development opportunities in New York and New Jersey, a move aligned with the brand’s Northeast expansion strategy.
As part of the company’s initial entry into the New York market, several territories throughout New York and New Jersey remain open for franchise development.
