Ray and Lacy bring seven years of restaurant experience to the Chicken Salad Chick brand. The brother-and-sister franchisee team own two Another Broken Egg Cafes and wanted to expand their business portfolio with a second restaurant concept. They were first introduced to Chicken Salad Chick in June 2016 and were instantly impressed with the product, service and support offered by corporate, and believe Shreveport is the perfect location for a Chicken Salad Chick restaurant.

"As Louisiana natives, we're excited to bring Chicken Salad Chick's great food, hospitable service and amazing story to the Shreveport market," said Ray Pynes. "We've had our eye on a few different restaurant concepts but after visiting the Lafayette location, we instantly knew that Chicken Salad Chick was the type of brand we wanted to be a part of. The local community in Shreveport is attracted to unique concepts and Chicken Salad Chick fits that description perfectly. We're confident the brand will resonate with local consumers and hope to open an additional location in the future."

The Chicken Salad Chick concept, born in Auburn, Ala., 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; the company now has more than 60 restaurants across the Southeast.

Chicken Salad Chick in Shreveport will be open Monday - Saturday from 10 a.m. - 7 p.m. For more information, visit http://www.chickensaladchick.com, or call 318-524-9960. Follow Chicken Salad Chick on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram for the latest news and trends.
