Located at 1720 Old Fannin Road, the Flowood restaurant will celebrate its grand opening on March 27th, where the first 100 guests will receive free chicken salad for a year.

During grand opening week, guests will experience the southern hospitality that Chicken Salad Chick is known for, with giveaways and specials that include:

The Flowood restaurant is owned and operated by husband-and-wife team Blake and Shae Fuller of Taste and C, LLC. Blake was first introduced to Chicken Salad Chick when he met founder Stacy Brown and her husband, Kevin while working as a food broker. He was immediately drawn to the brand's welcoming culture and mounting success, which fueled his desire to become a Chicken Salad Chick franchisee. After trying the food firsthand, the Fullers, along with their business partners David Stephens and Walt Marcello, decided to bring Chicken Salad Chick to more communities throughout Mississippi, starting with their new location in Flowood. The pair plans to open additional restaurants in the Hattiesburg and Jackson, Mississippi markets, with the first restaurant in Hattiesburg slated to open this summer.

"It has always been a dream of ours to own a restaurant, but we couldn't find a concept that aligned with our personal values and goals. The moment I was introduced to Chicken Salad Chick that all changed," said Blake Fuller. "The simplicity of the restaurant operations coupled with the high-quality chicken salad and friendly environment make Chicken Salad Chick a unique dining experience. We're thrilled to be joining a brand that we believe in and look forward to bringing this one-of-a-kind concept to more communities in the state I've called home for nearly 37 years."

The Chicken Salad Chick concept, born in Auburn, Alabama, was established in 2008 in the kitchen of founder, Stacy Brown. When Stacy discovered that the local county health department would not allow her to continue making and selling her delicious recipes out of her home kitchen, she overcame that obstacle by launching her first restaurant with the business expertise of her future husband and fellow founder, Kevin Brown. Together, they opened a small takeout restaurant, which quickly grew; the company now has 85 restaurants across the Southeast.

Chicken Salad Chick in Flowood will be open Monday – Saturday from 10:30 a.m. – 7 p.m. For more information, visit www.chickensaladchick.com, or call 769-257-7092. Follow Chicken Salad Chick on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram for the latest news and trends.
