Dave’s Hot Chicken is expanding further in Colorado, with another location slated to open in Longmont sometime this year. According to 99.9 The Point, an established franchisee within the system is working on a store near the Costco on Ken Pratt Boulevard and Main Street.
The Longmont location is part of a broader expansion strategy by franchisee Jason Beld, who, alongside partner Marc Rogers, has committed to opening 11 Dave’s Hot Chicken outlets in the Denver and Fort Collins metropolitan areas, as What Now Denver reported last year. Their first Northern Colorado store debuted in Fort Collins in the fall of 2023.
Posts on Facebook show that the business is joining a new building that is being constructed. Other tenants listed on the flyer include Noire The Nail Bar, Pacific Dental Services, a sandwich shop, and a pizza place. It also states that one suite is still available for leasing.
Dave’s Hot Chicken began in California and ventured outside the state in 2021, with Colorado being among the first expansion locations. This will now be the seventh store for the brand in the state, and there are more than 200 open across the US, Canada, and the Middle East.
