Raising Cane’s Announces U.S. Expansion in July

Raising Cane’s will continue its U.S. expansion in July with the opening of five new restaurants, including its first locations in Johnson City, Tennessee; Jacksonville, North Carolina; and Albany, Georgia.

The openings are part of the chicken finger chain’s ongoing growth strategy and will also include new restaurants in Los Angeles and Schererville, Indiana. In addition, Raising Cane’s plans to reopen three remodeled restaurants in Edmond, Oklahoma; Fort Collins, Colorado; and Las Vegas following renovation projects.

According to the company, each new restaurant will create local jobs, establish community partnerships, and serve Raising Cane’s chicken finger menu. The remodels are intended to refresh existing locations while continuing to serve established markets.
