Fast casual eatery Chicken Salad Chick will open its newest restaurant located at 2304 James L Redman Parkway in the Walden Woods Shopping Center in Plant City, Fla. on Tuesday, September 16.
Chicken Salad Chick of Plant City is owned by husband-and-wife duo, Brad and Tammy Cochran of Tampa Bay CSC. The Cochrans’ journey began back in 2007, when founder Stacy Brown introduced them to her signature chicken salad at a baby shower for Brad and Tammy’s sister-in-law, Julie. What started as a simple introduction quickly grew into a passion, and nearly 18 years later, the Cochrans have become seasoned multi-unit franchise owners. In addition to their newest Plant City location, they operate five other Chicken Salad Chick restaurants across the Tampa Bay area including Brandon, East Fowler, Lutz, South Tampa and Wesley Chapel.
“Our Plant City opening marks an exciting new chapter for Tammy and me,” said Brad Cochran. “We’re thrilled to share the Chicken Salad Chick experience with this wonderful community. Our mission is to provide not only flavorful, made-from-scratch chicken salads but also a warm, welcoming environment where guests feel right at home. Whether dining in or catering for a special gathering, we look forward to serving even more families throughout the greater Tampa Bay area soon.”
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 Plant City restaurant offers in-restaurant and outdoor dining, take-out, third-party delivery and catering options.
“We’re excited to continue expanding Chicken Salad Chick’s presence in Florida alongside the Cochrans and their dedicated team,” said Scott Deviney, president and CEO of Chicken Salad Chick. “Plant City is a fun community filled with family-friendly activities and a diverse dining scene, which is why we’re confident Chicken Salad Chick will fit right in. With the Cochrans’ years of experience and deep understanding of what guests in the greater Tampa area value in their dining choices, we’re certain this new location will quickly become a hometown favorite.”
