This location marks the brand's second in the Austin area – and the first within the city itself – following the Pflugerville opening in March. Operating under his franchise group, Meauxmentum Strategies and Investments, Morrison recently secured the rights to open 11 Chicken Salad Chick locations across the greater Austin area, which includes Austin – Hancock and Pflugerville.

Morrison also plans to open two new restaurants in the greater Oklahoma City area, along with a new location in Wichita, KS before the end of the year.

'Having spent most of my career in the restaurant industry, I truly believe this concept is special. With its loyal fan base, made-from-scratch food, and operational efficiencies, investing in Chicken Salad Chick seemed like a no-brainer. There's a clear appetite for fresh, flavorful dining in Austin, and I'm confident residents will love what we're offering.' Chicken Salad Chick is known for its dozen-plus variety of made-from-scratch chicken salad flavors, fresh side salads, gourmet soups, signature sandwiches, and desserts. The new Austin restaurant offers in-restaurant dining, take-out, third-party delivery, and catering options. 'Expanding our footprint in the great state of Texas is a major milestone for Chicken Salad Chick, and it's even more meaningful to do so alongside such a wonderful franchise partner,' said Scott Deviney, CEO and president of Chicken Salad Chick. 'Troy has incredible business insight and a genuine passion for hospitality. Since joining our network, he's played a major role in our growth, and we're excited to see how he and his team continue to build our presence in the Austin market.' Giving back to the community is an important focus for the Austin team and the Chicken Salad Chick brand, which established the CSC Foundation to support CURE Childhood Cancer and local food banks with fundraisers throughout the year. As part of pre-opening Friends & Family events in Austin, the restaurant will be raising money for B.I.G. Love Cancer Care, a non-profit organization providing physical, emotional, and financial support to families experiencing childhood cancer in Houston, Austin, and San Antonio. Chicken Salad Chick of Austin will be open Monday – Saturday from 10am – 9pm. For more information, visit Follow Chicken Salad Chick on Facebook and Instagram for the latest news and trends.
