Chicken Salad Chick of Baytown marks the third opening in Texas for the brand this quarter and the fourth location for franchise owners, Clarke and Kim Hayes. With backgrounds in business and education, Clarke and Kim discovered the opportunity to franchise with the brand through a podcast. As longtime fans of Chicken Salad Chick, they saw an opportunity to invest in a business that shared the same values and sense of community as them. Seeing potential in the growing Baytown market, they decided to bring the concept to the area, and also operate locations in Pearland, Pasadena, and Lake Jackson.
“In the car one day, I heard the Chicken Salad founder speaking on a podcast about her experience opening the restaurant. I felt so inspired by the story that the next day, Clarke and I visited the Houston location, met the District Manager and began to learn more about the brand,” said Kim Hayes, franchise owner of Chicken Salad Chick of Baytown in a statement. “It has been a great journey with Chicken Salad Chick, and we are excited to bring it to Baytown. The community is so tightly knit and supportive of its residents, schools and local businesses and we’re grateful for the opportunity to become a part of it. We genuinely believe Chicken Salad Chick’s mission of spreading joy, enriching lives, and serving others aligns perfectly with the neighborhood and its small-town feel.”
Chicken Salad Chick is known for its dozen-plus variety of made-from-scratch chicken salad flavors, fresh side salads, gourmet soups, signature sandwiches, and desserts. The new Baytown restaurant offers in-restaurant and outdoor patio dining, drive-thru, curbside, take-out, third-party delivery, and catering options.
“With Baytown being the third grand opening in Texas in just a few months, we are excited to continue to build on this momentum and grow within the state,” said Scott Deviney, president and CEO of Chicken Salad Chick. “We’re honored to have passionate franchise owners, like the Hayes, expand our brand’s presence. Their ties to the Baytown community and interest in preserving the area’s small-town feel is inspiring and we’re grateful to have them as part of our team.”
Giving back to the community is an important focus for the Baytown team and the Chicken Salad Chick brand, which established the CSC Foundation to support CURE Childhood Cancer and local food banks with fundraisers throughout the year. As part of pre-opening Friends & Family events in Baytown, the restaurant will be raising money for the Houston Methodist Foundation and their Pink Heals Event, which supports cancer patients and helps raise awareness for breast cancer.
Chicken Salad Chick of Baytown will be open Monday – Saturday from 10:30am – 8pm.
