What Now Dallas: Multi-Unit Layne’s Chicken Fingers Owners Opening First of Six Units in DFW Area

The Dallas-based fast-casual restaurant known for its iconic chicken fingers and secret sauce, Layne’s Chicken Fingers, recently opened a location in Denton. The owners of the newest franchise addition, Scott and Heather Davis have been fans of Layne’s Chicken Fingers for a long time. The couple jumped at the opportunity to own a restaurant with the brand. In total, the Davises signed up to open 6 restaurants in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.

“When I read an article that Layne’s was franchising, I called almost immediately to start digging in and getting a better idea of what all it took to open,” said Scott. “We have a lot of operational experience, but it comes down to people. That is the key element we are looking for, and it is without a doubt Layne’s HQ team’s greatest strength. We wanted a great partner to develop the market together.”

Scott and Heather were eager to break into the Denton market with Layne’s Chicken Fingers. The city’s population has been steadily growing, and the couple knows the community will love the food as much as they do. Scott and Heather already have their eye on nearby cities like Burleson, Arlington and Mansfield for their remaining five locations and are likely to sign another deal with the brand to open other restaurants across the state in the future. But for now, the couple is just excited to be on the other side of the counter, helping a brand that they feel passionate about grow.
