Layne's Chicken Fingers Coming to Wyoming With New One-Unit Deal

CHEYENNE, Wyo., April 25, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ - Layne's Chicken Fingers is coming to Wyoming. It has signed a One-unit deal with Michael Hickerson.

Michael Hickerson has been a loyal fan of Layne's Chicken Fingers, the Soon-to-be Famous™ chicken franchise, from the very beginning. As a college student at Texas A&M, he worked in both the first and second Layne's locations, even helping prep the building for the second location, and he still craves the chicken fingers all these years later.

In fact, Hickerson loved Layne's food so much that he decided to become a franchisee to bring his beloved southern cuisine to the Cheyenne, Wyoming, area where he and his family live. Hickerson admits that there have been a few times over the years when he thought about calling his old boss and the brand's original owner, Mike Garratt, to see if he could open a location in Wyoming. Still, he didn't realize how plausible this truly was until recently.

The Cheyenne deal will bring the 1st location to Wyoming with Hickerson serving as a key player in Layne's continued expansion.

"After learning about the history of Layne's and meeting the leadership team, I knew this was an opportunity like no other," said Hickerson. "I'm excited to bring Layne's to my own community."

"We're happy to welcome Michael to the system and know he will represent the brand well in Cheyenne," said Chief Operating Officer Samir Wattar. "This is the first location in the state, and we're optimistic about our growth in the market."
