Bojangles Enters New Market with Signing of Multi-Unit Agreement in Chicago

Chicken and Biscuits Leader Makes Chicago Market Debut with Three New Stores 

April 18, 2023 // Franchising.com // CHARLOTTE, N.C. - Bojangles announced today the signing of a multi-unit franchise development agreement that will introduce the brand to Chicago. The deal is spearheaded by experienced multi-unit operator Ron Harper of RMS Family Restaurants, LLC. New to the Bojangles franchise system, Harper will bring three new restaurants to suburban areas throughout the Chicago market over the next three years.

“Our launch into Chicago is a step for Bojangles as we continue to expand,” said Patricia Halpin, Vice President of Growth at Bojangles. 

A Chicago native, Harper, who serves as managing partner of RMS Family Restaurants, LLC., brings a wealth of leadership and restaurant franchising experience as he embarks on his latest business venture, previously owning and operating various McDonald’s locations throughout Memphis. With its customers being its top priority, RMS strives to provide a great guest experience, demonstrating customer appreciation by providing good food, value, and superior service in a welcoming environment. After realizing that these principles aligned with Bojangles’ core, Harper was eager to leverage his expertise and understanding of the Chicago market to bring the brand to the area for the first time.

“There’s certainly a desire for chicken concepts in Chicago, and we recognize that Bojangles offers an opportunity that truly stands out among its competitors. With unique offerings and an unmatched flavor profile, Southern-style hospitality, and an overall proven concept, we look forward to building upon the strong customer loyalty that Bojangles is known for,” said Harper. 

Bojangles has recent agreements to expand in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, South Austin, Texas, North Central Mississippi, Baltimore, Maryland, and Central Florida.
