4 Steps to Opening Your Chicken Franchise

While there is no 100% guaranteed way to become a successful franchisee, choosing the right franchisor can significantly impact your chances of success. Over our decades in the quick-service restaurant (QSR) industry, Bojangles has demonstrated that we have what it takes to establish restaurant locations that can achieve growth.

A critical factor of our success as a brand has been the strong bond that our authentic Southern meals and hospitality have allowed us to form with consumers in the territories we enter. This customer affinity benefits many of the QSR operators who have chosen to pursue franchise opportunities with Bojangles in their local markets.

Finding Motivated and Experienced QSR Operators

Our efforts begin with finding motivated entrepreneurs who are serious about delivering the best dining experience possible. Our franchise qualifications are not just about finding someone who can meet the high standards of a Bojangles chicken franchise. We have also designed them to protect your investment as much as possible so you have a realistic chance of accomplishing the goals you’ve set for your restaurant locations.

Flexible Business Management

Weoffer the flexibility of adding a business partner to help you run your Bojangles QSRs. If you lack either the financial capability or prior QSR experience that we require from our candidates, you can still invest in Bojangles franchises by partnering with someone who can handle those aspects. Whether you’re pursuing Bojangles locations on your own or as part of an ownership group, we expect that you:

Love of the craft of successfully operating a restaurant
Possess restaurant development experience (including pre-opening planning)
Are based in or near one of the Bojangles expansion target markets
Want to leverage existing restaurant operations experience by adding a famous Southern chicken and breakfast brand to your portfolio
Have the capability to pursue multi-unit opportunities with the ability to manage a base of Bojangles restaurants

Our Traditional, Freestanding restaurants have an initial investment cost that usually ranges from $2,265,500 to $3,647,200 per location. Bojangles’ Express restaurant model typically costs between $622,500 and $1,576,700 per location. Our franchise candidates must pay a $35,000 franchise fee for each Bojangles location., Our financial qualification requires a minimum of $500,000 per unit in liquid capital and a net worth of at least $1,000,000 per unit.
