Slim Chickens Continues Breakthrough Franchise Growth with Fort Sam Houston Location

Slim Chickens announced today its new restaurant opening at 2500 Funston Road, located in AAFES Exchange Shopping Center.

“Fort Sam Houston is exactly the type of non-traditional location we’re looking for as we expand the brand into new markets. We have a great partnership with our Franchisee, AAFES, and are looking forward to bringing Slim’s to many more army and air force bases across the country,” said Jackie Lobdell, vice president of franchise development at Slim Chickens.

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 is a fast-casual brand in the better-chicken segment, built to scale across markets with flexible formats. Its diverse menu, cooked-to-order quality, and Southern hospitality continue to drive strong growth.
