Slim Chickens announced its new restaurant opening in Leeds, United Kingdom. Established multi-unit operators, Boparan Restaurant Group is at the forefront of the opening.
The better-chicken brand has opened more than 235 locations across the United States and the United Kingdom. The brand is known and loved for its hand-breaded, cooked-to-order tenders and passionate group of followers within the markets it operates. With more than 1,150 locations in development, the brand’s momentum continues to prove its stronghold in its segment.
“We are so excited to share our hand-breaded chicken tenders and energetic dining experience with more members of the community in Leeds,” said Jackie Lobdell, vice president of franchise development at Slim Chickens. “Spreading our southern hospitality and inviting atmosphere throughout the United Kingdom is so exciting and operating groups like Boparan Restaurant Group are a prime example of whom we seek as we continue to expand.”
