Chicken Salad Chick coming to Ormond Beach

I've been waiting for this brand to stake a claim in Central Florida. Looks like they've chosen Volusia County to enter the market, according to a press release:

Chicken Salad Chick, one of Nation’s Restaurant News 2015 Breakout Brands, announced today the location of their newest franchise in Ormond Beach. The restaurant, set to open this fall, will be located at 75 North Nova Road, Ormond Beach, FL 32174.

Owners Buck and Brooklyn Harris are thrilled to open their first of three locations in the Volusia County, Lake Mary and Altamonte Springs areas. “Ormond Beach is a beautiful community that supports local business and where businesses support the community,” said Buck. “It is a great place to live and definitely the perfect town for Chicken Salad Chick.”

Born In Alabama -- The Chicken Salad Chick concept was established in Auburn, AL in 2008 in the kitchen of founder, Stacy Brown. Stacy quickly learned that selling a homemade recipe from her kitchen is against the law, and after being shut down by the health department, she decided to solicit the business expertise of her future husband and fellow founder, Kevin Brown. Together, they opened a small takeout restaurant which quickly grew to enormous demand and additional locations. Chicken Salad Chick has sold 131 franchises to be developed across the states of Alabama, Florida, Georgia, North & South Carolina, Tennessee and Texas, and has plans to expand nationally in the coming years.

“We’re so excited for new growth in Florida and another location by the beach,” said founder Kevin Brown. “The Harris family brings a wealth of restaurant knowledge and are a perfect fit for our growing brand.”
