Behind Chicken Salad Chick's debut in Waco is first-time franchise owner Austin Young of H3y Chick Enterprises. Drawing from nearly two decades of experience in the foodservice industry, previously serving as District Manager of Zaxby's, Young is well-versed in operations and restaurant management. He was first introduced to Chicken Salad Chick in Columbus, Georgia in 2014 and eagerly awaited the opportunity to open his own location. Young will be working alongside his two uncles at the new Waco restaurant and has plans to open two additional locations in the near future.
"I've worked in a family-owned restaurant since I was 15, so being able to carry on that tradition and begin my own family business with my two uncles is a dream come true," said Austin Young. "After my first taste of Chicken Salad Chick six years ago, I knew I had to open my own location but needed to find the right market. Waco is a small, tight-knit community and vibrant college town that resonates with Chicken Salad Chick's brand values and I know the brand's made-fresh-daily food and hospitable atmosphere will be welcomed with open arms."
Chicken Salad Chick in Waco will be open Monday – Saturday from 10:30a.m. – 8p.m. For more information, visit www.chickensaladchick.com. Follow Chicken Salad Chick on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram for the latest news and trends.
