“We are looking forward to serving our cooked-to-order chicken tenders to more communities in Mississippi,” said Jackie Lobdell, vice president of franchise development at Slim Chickens. “Expanding our loyal following across the state is so exciting as we continue to see more residents in Mississippi embrace our southern hospitality and inviting atmosphere..”
