Chick-fil-A, Inc., the third largest quick service restaurant company in the United States, has announced its first restaurant locations as part of the company’s UK-wide expansion.
With more than 3,000 restaurants across the US, Puerto Rico and Canada, the new sites in Belfast, Leeds, Liverpool, and London will mark the first locations outside of North America for the restaurant brand, which is known for its famous Original Chick-fil-A® Chicken Sandwich and friendly hospitality.
Chick-fil-A plans to open five restaurants, both licensed and locally owned and operated models, across the UK in the first two years.
“Serving communities is at the heart of everything we do, and we look forward to bringing Chick-fil-A’s delicious food and signature hospitality to Belfast, Leeds, Liverpool and London, and continuing our long-term investment in the UK,” said Anita Costello, chief international officer at Chick-fil-A, Inc. "From job creation to supporting local causes, we are excited about the positive impact our first restaurants will have in the communities they serve.”
Chick-fil-A plans to invest over $100M in the UK over the next 10 years. The initial expansion into the UK will create approximately 400 new jobs at licensed and franchised restaurants.
