The Charlotte, North Carolina-based chicken chain Bojangles will soon open a location in the upcoming Poinciana Lakes Plaza, according to a report in Osceola News-Gazette. While the restaurant’s specific address has not been released, the plaza will be found at the NW corner of Cypress Parkway and Marigold Ave.
Specializing in southern-style fried chicken dishes, Bojangles serves items such as chicken sandwiches, chicken biscuits, salads, and a variety of sides such as macaroni and cheese, coleslaw, beans, and french fries.
This Bojangles appears to be run by the Texas-based Chaac Foods — an enormous, nationally active group which runs famous fast-casual brands such as Pizza Hut, Applebee’s, Cru Food & Wine Bar, Ling & Louie’s and Panda Express — who holds a significant central Florida expansion plan with the brand. Chaac’s operations are especially concentrated in Maryland, DC, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Georgia and Texas.
“We are thrilled to join forces with the accomplished team at Chaac Foods,” Bojangles chief development officer Jose Costa said in a press release. “The company’s caliber of operations is well-recognized, and to have a partner with that pedigree invest in Bojangles speaks volumes about our brand and our growth plans for the future.”
Until the Poinciana Lakes Plaza Bojangles opens its doors to the public, foodies can visit its neighboring location at 101 S Oregon Ave in Sanford.
