November 12, 2024 // Franchising.com // GEORGIA — Slim Chickens announced a 10-unit development agreement in the northern Atlanta suburbs. The expansion will bring the brand’s signature chicken tenders to several counties, including Floyd, Gordon, Bartow, Cherokee, Forsyth, Hall, Jackson and Clarke with the first location opening by April 2026.

Leading the development are Lance Burns and Mike Waller of Peach State Slims. With a strong partnership spanning over 10 years and seasoned Sonic franchisees with several locations, including one they co-own, Burns and Waller are well-prepared for this expansion. 

“Slim Chickens is exactly the kind of concept we wanted to add to our portfolio, with its strong focus on high-quality food and exceptional service,” said Burns. “We are looking forward to bringing Slim Chickens’ food to communities throughout northern Atlanta, as we are confident the concept will resonate with all.”

Slim Chickens is known and loved for its hand-breaded, cooked-to-order tenders and passionate followers within its markets. 

“Peach State Slims is the type of franchise group that we’re looking for, and with their experience, we have no doubt that their Georgia locations will be a success,” said Jackie Lobdell, Vice President of Franchise Development at Slim Chickens. “We are so thankful for operators like them who are dedicated to sharing our Southern hospitality and cooked-to-order chicken tenders with more members of the community.”
