Company Information

In our kitchens, we focus on fresh and simple ingredients. And we always have. Since the beginning, we have served chicken that is whole breast meat, with no added fillers or hormones, and we bread it by hand in our restaurants. Produce is delivered fresh to our kitchens several times a week. Salads are chopped and prepared fresh throughout the day. Whole lemons are freshly squeezed and combined with pure cane sugar and water (yep, that is all) to make Chick-fil-A Lemonade®. It may not be the easy way, but it is the only way we know.

Chick-fil-A, Inc. is a family owned and privately held restaurant company founded in 1967 by S. Truett Cathy. Devoted to serving the local communities in which its franchised restaurants operate, and known for its original chicken sandwich, Chick-fil-A serves freshly prepared food in more than 3,000 restaurants in 47 States, Canada, and the UK.

Working at a Chick-fil-A® restaurant on Gold Star Blvd is more than a job – it’s an opportunity for teamwork and leadership development in a positive, people-focused environment.
