Virginia Gets Its First Taste of Slim Chickens

Slim Chickens, a fast casual franchise in the better-chicken segment, announced today its new restaurant opening at Liberty University. Louis Cambeletta and Duke Davis are at the helm of the new location.

“College students love Slim Chickens tasty, made-to-order meals that don’t break the bank, and we are so excited that Liberty University Flames are getting Virginia’s first taste of our southern comfort food,” said Jackie Lobdell, vice president of franchise development at Slim Chickens. “Now that Virginia has had a glimpse at our southern hospitality, I am confident there will be even more of a demand for our chicken tenders and chicken sandwiches across the state.”

The brand prides itself on its cooked-to-order fresh food and strong devoted fanbase, also known as “Slimthusiasts.” Slim Chickens has distinguished itself in the better-chicken segment by offering high-quality food and 17 house-made dipping sauces, allowing customers to enjoy a different flavor profile with each visit. Its menu is broader than many in the segment, offering chicken tenders, fresh salads, sandwiches, chicken and waffles, chicken wings and unique side items.

Fans also resonate with the southern contemporary look and feel and open and inviting layout of Slim Chickens restaurants, which speak to the hospitality mindset that anchors the brand.

Slim Chickens is a fast-casual brand in the better-chicken segment, built to scale across markets with flexible formats. Its diverse menu, cooked-to-order quality, and Southern hospitality continue to drive strong growth.
