Wing It On! Opens First Location in Alabama

TL;DR

Wing It On! has opened its first location in Alabama, a franchise owned by Quincy Minor in Prattville. The new location offers takeout and third-party delivery, and Minor plans to implement a charitable giving program to support local youth organizations.

The new Wing It On! location offers takeout and third-party delivery Monday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Sunday from 12 p.m. to 8 p.m.

Quincy Minor, longtime local resident and experienced business owner and IT professional is the franchise owner of the new Wing It On! in Prattville. This is his first venture into restaurant operations and he is excited to fill the markets need for fresh and crispy wings. Minor is also committed to helping local youth organizations through a charitable giving program he plans to implement at the restaurant.

“I’m thrilled to carry on the Wing It On! tradition of great food, amazing value and remarkable service into Prattville. Nobody does carryout and pick-up service like we do,” said Quincy Minor, a seasoned entrepreneur with deep roots in the area. “Our dedication and commitment to exceptional wings and a phenomenal customer experience is a perfect fit for local foodies and wing fans. Our award-winning sauces and inviting atmosphere are unmatched.”

Creating the best wing experience around goes back to the early 2000s when Matt Ensero, CEO and founder of Wing It On! and his friends would argue every football Sunday about who was driving 30-plus minutes to pick up wings from some of their favorite spots in nearby towns. However, the distance and low-quality product would always result in soggy and cold wings once they got home. Ensero had enough, hence, Wing It On! was born. He opened the first Wing It On! in his hometown of Waterbury, Connecticut, serving only the crispiest of wings that all true wing nuts crave.

“Quincy is exactly the type of franchisee we want to grow Wing It On! in new communities,” said Ensero. “His strong ties to Prattville, business acumen and understanding of the Wing It On! motto – that great wings without great service, aren’t that great – makes him the perfect fit as a franchisee.”

Wing It On! has earned a loyal fan following redefining the standards for fresh and crispy wings. With a simplified, innovative menu, fans of the brand have experienced the true buffalo-quality wing cooked and sauced or seasoned to perfection. In addition to its famous wings, Wing It On! also serves chicken sandwiches and customizable seasoned fries.

Since 2011 Wing It On! has focused on giving fans a truly exceptional wing experience that starts with fresh, never-frozen classic and boneless wings cooked to perfection and tossed in award-winning sauces and dry rubs. The line-up of bigger, juicier, hand-crafted chicken sandwiches and a selection of seasoned fries are also making fans continue to choose WIO for game time, or anytime hunger strikes.
