Manhattan will get its third Chick-fil-A restaurant in Midtown, and more are being plotted around the city.
Chick-fil-A
Southern fast food chain Chick-fil-A plans to open multiple outlets in New York beyond the three-story flagship announced in March, according to a presentation made by the company to prospective franchise managers.
In addition to that Herald Square mega outlet, the chain has already secured another location a few blocks south from Rockefeller Center, at 46th Street and 6th Avenue. It's also looking to open additional locations in Manhattan's Upper East Side and the Financial District in the coming two years.
The Atlanta-based company confirmed the plans to BuzzFeed News. "We want ample opportunities to serve New Yorkers great food and remarkable service, which is why we have begun searching for new sites in the area," the company said in an emailed statement.
In Long Island, Chick-fil-A is planning to open an outlet in Port Jefferson this fall, and is exploring locations in Hicksville, Commack, and Westbury.
Chick-fil-A restaurants are concentrated in the Southeast, but the company has been expanding into new regions in recent years, opening about 15% of its stores in new markets. The company has grown to more than 1,900 locations and is the country's largest chicken chain in terms of total sales, surpassing KFC despite its smaller footprint. In 2014, the chain says it made almost $6 billion in sales.
