Franchising

The first Chicken Express
franchise store was opened in 1990

Since then, more than 200 locations have opened up across the southwest United States. Most locations are in Texas, but we also have stores in Arkansas, Oklahoma and Louisiana.

Chicken Express believes that an important element to its franchise system is the owner/operator philosophy. When an operator of a restaurant is also the owner, he tends to pay particular attention to all of the details required for serving high-quality food, with wonderful customer service at reasonable prices. Chicken Express seeks the finest, hardest-working individuals to open new franchise locations across the southwest.

We welcome interested franchise candidates to complete and submit our contact form. Each application will be thoroughly reviewed and considered.
