## Story

Virginia Beach, Va. - Chicken Salad Chick has announced the signing of a 6-unit development deal for Virginia Beach with an existing franchisee.

Behind the agreement is current Chicken Salad Chick franchisee Melissa Holt, who opened the Hampton, Virginia location at 2850 Kilgore Avenue in December 2021.

“When I first signed as a franchisee, adding more locations to my franchise profile before my first store was even a year old was the last thing on my mind,” said Holt. “However, with the support I’ve received from both the Chicken Salad Chick team and the community in Hampton, I felt confident in continuing to grow with the brand.”

The first of the six locations for Virginia Beach is slated to come summer 2023, and all six are planned to open over the next three and a half years.
