The Chicken Salad Chick concept, born in Auburn, was established in 2008 in the kitchen of founder, Stacy Brown. When Stacy discovered that the local county health department would not allow her to continue making and selling her delicious recipes out of her home kitchen, she overcame that obstacle by launching her first restaurant with the business expertise of her future husband and fellow founder, Kevin Brown. Together, they opened a small takeout restaurant, which quickly grew and began franchising in 2012. In 2015, Eagle Merchant Partners purchased a majority stake in Chicken Salad Chick, and under the leadership of CEO Scott Deviney and team, the company now has 105 restaurants across the Southeast.
Chicken Salad Chick in Oviedo will be open Monday - Saturday from 10:00 a.m. - 8 p.m. For more information, visit http://www.chickensaladchick.com or call (407) 604-3625. Follow Chicken Salad Chick on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram for the latest news and trends.
