# Chick’nCone to Launch New Nonfungible Token Opportunity

**TL;DR:** Chick'nCone, a fast-craft restaurant concept, is launching a new nonfungible token (NFT) program called Chick'nCoin, allowing owners to secure benefits in specific geographic areas. The brand has been able to create an entirely new category of menu items and has opened a total of 24 locations since its founding in 2014.

## Story

New owners of a Chick’nCoin will be assigned a geographic area in the United States and receive a portion of the initial franchise fee for any new Chick’nCone locations to open in that area. They will also earn royalty on sales at all locations within the area. This will be divided into equal portions among the number of tokens issued for that area. Multiple Chick’nCoins will be issued for more populated areas and all areas can hold a minimum of three locations, while most can hold up to five. In areas with multiple Chick’nCone owners, there can be as many as 25 Chick’nCone locations.

Chick’nCone’s recent success can be attributed to its unique menu offerings. The brand has been able to create an entirely new category of menu items, transforming the familiar comfort food of chicken and waffles into its photo-worthy and on-the-go staple. Since its founding in 2014, Chick’nCone has been praised for its natural ability to be showcased on social media and has opened a total of 24 locations. Its entrance into the NFT marketplace displays the brand’s consistent efforts to innovate and set itself apart in the fast-craft industry.

“We couldn’t help but notice all of the buzz and excitement surrounding the NFT space right now,” said Co-Founder and CEO of Chick’nCone, Jonathan Almanzar. “A forward-thinking spirit is what has really propelled our brand thus far and we were confident that if we established an NFT program of our own, it would successfully take off."

Chick’nCone’s new NFT program represents the brand’s next step in staying ahead of the curve in the fast-craft industry.
