January 16, 2024 // Franchising.com // AUSTIN, Texas – Chicken Salad Chick announces the signing of four new multi-unit franchise agreements. These new agreements represent both new and existing franchisees of the brand.

Behind the newly signed agreements are franchisees who are set to have all restaurants open within the next five years:

• 11-Unit Agreement: Behind the double-digit 11-unit agreement in Austin are Troy Morrison and Keaton Craig. A multi-brand franchisee, Morrison’s portfolio consists of Taco Bell and Wingstop locations. In addition to the multi-unit Austin development, Morrison simultaneously signed a six location agreement with Chicken Salad Chick for Oklahoma City, OK.
• 5-Unit Agreement: Spearheading east Texas development is Jack and Mona Gabriel. The couple began their entrepreneurial journey franchising with Nothing Bundt Cakes. They opened their first Chicken Salad Chick with a single store agreement in Tyler, Texas in 2023. The Gabriels signed on for five more units across the Longview, Greenville, and Tyler communities.
• 3-Unit Agreement: Bringing three units to central Texas is franchisee Mark Blessing, local to Granbury. Blessing is no stranger to the franchise industry, having owned several Great Clips locations over the last 20 years. He is to open Chicken Salad Chick in Stephenville, Granbury, and Abilene.
• 2-Unit Agreement: Following the opening of her Amarillo Chicken Salad Chick this past June, current franchisee, Laura Garrison, has signed a new two store agreement for Lubbock with partner, Moua Meng.

Alongside this development news, Chicken Salad Chick will celebrate its first 2024 grand opening in New Braunfels on Wednesday, January 17 with San Antonio franchisees James Oberg, Jeff Rochelle, and George Shaw at the helm. The group has opened three locations in just under a year. The New Braunfels location is the third location of eight that the south Texas Chicken Salad Chick owners intend to open in San Antonio and the surrounding areas.
