Slim Chickens announced its new Iowa restaurant opening at 1730 N Ankeny Blvd. Edotto Brands, a seasoned restaurant operating group, is at the helm of the new locations.
The better-chicken brand has opened more than 175 locations across the United States and the United Kingdom, and is known for its passionate group of followers in the markets in which it operates. With more than 900 locations in development, the brand’s momentum shows no signs of slowing down.
“We are absolutely ecstatic that our first location in Iowa is open for residents to enjoy,” says Jackie Lobdell, vice president of franchise development at Slim Chickens. “As we continue our expansion across the United States, we are seeking talented operating groups, like Edotto Brands, to spearhead our growth. Our team is eager to break into even more communities to offer individuals a chance to try our diverse menu and welcoming environment.”
The brand prides itself on its cooked-to-order fresh food and strong devoted fanbase, also known as “Slimthusiasts.” Slim Chickens has distinguished itself in the better-chicken segment by offering high-quality food and 17 house-made dipping sauces, allowing customers to enjoy a different flavor profile with each visit. Its menu is broader than many in the segment, offering chicken tenders, fresh salads, sandwiches, chicken and waffles, chicken wings and unique side items. Fans also resonate with the southern contemporary look and feel and open and inviting layout of Slim Chickens restaurants, which speak to the hospitality mindset that anchors the brand.
Slim Chickens’ franchise opportunity differentiates itself with prime markets available for multi-unit development, a passionate leadership team and world-class franchisee support system. As Slim Chickens expands, it is awarding franchise opportunities to qualified, experienced and passionate multi-unit groups looking to add a dynamic segment to their portfolio.
