November 27, 2019 // Franchising.com // AUBURN, Ala. - Chicken Salad Chick, the nation's only southern inspired, fast casual chicken salad restaurant concept, announced today it will be expanding in the Dallas-Fort Worth area with its newest restaurant in Arlington. Marking the brand's fourth North Texas opening this year and 11th overall in the state, the new Arlington restaurant emphasizes Chicken Salad Chick's rapid expansion plans in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, with another location slated to open in Fort Worth in 2020. The Arlington restaurant, which is located at 3900 Arlington Highlands Boulevard, will be celebrating its grand opening on December 10th and will offer free chicken salad for a year to the first 100 guests.
During grand opening week, guests will experience the southern hospitality that Chicken Salad Chick is known for, with giveaways and specials that include:
Leading the Dallas-Fort Worth expansion are multi-unit franchise owners Luis Ibarguengoytia and Hugo del Pozzo of Metroplex CSC, LLC. Drawing from his two decades of experience managing restaurant operations for a variety of concepts including, Bruegger's Bagels, Cru Wine Bar and Panda Express, the Ibarguengoytia partnered with Pozzo to diversify his portfolio and develop Chicken Salad Chick locations. Since opening their first location in Irving earlier this year, Metroplex CSC brought Chicken Salad Chick to McKinney and following their opening in Arlington, plan to open 12 additional restaurants throughout the metroplex in the coming years.
"In less than a year, we will have opened our third Chicken Salad Chick location in DFW and we couldn't be more thrilled," said Luis Ibarguengoytia. "We knew the brand would be a hit in the area and the response we received when we debuted in Irving solidified that feeling. We are excited to introduce the brand's made-from-scratch chicken salad flavors to the residents in Arlington and can't wait to see what the future holds."
The Chicken Salad Chick concept was established in 2008 by founder, Stacy Brown. With more than a dozen original chicken salad flavors as well as fresh side salads, gourmet soups, signature sandwiches and delicious desserts, Chicken Salad Chick's robust menu offers a variety of options suitable for any guest. Under the leadership of CEO Scott Deviney and the Chicken Salad Chick team, the company now has more than 140 restaurants currently open in 16 states and remains a standout brand within the fast casual segment.
