“We’ve seen increased interest from Atlanta’s diverse and talented workforce, and the city’s airport allows us swift access to prospective vendors and a growing pool of interested franchisees,” Deviney said.
Chicken Salad Chick hired nearly a dozen corporate positions in Atlanta throughout 2020 that will manage and support the rapid growth of the brand throughout the Southeast and Midwest.
Chicken Salad Chick last summer promoted three Atlanta-based executives to its C-suite, including Jim Thompson as chief operating officer, Terry McKee as chief development officer and Tom Carr as chief marketing officer.

Chicken Salad Chick was founded in Auburn, Alabama by Stacy Brown and her late husband Kevin Brown in 2008.
Chicken Salad Chick announced the relocation of its headquarters from Auburn, Alabama, to Atlanta, Georgia. The move is slated to take place during the first quarter of 2021.
The company’s new office will be located in Vinings at the Overlook II building – across the street from its Vinings restaurant – housing the leadership team of approximately 40 current and new employees. Chicken Salad Chick expects 17 Auburn-based corporate employees to transition to the new headquarters in metro-Atlanta January through May, 2021. The remaining 20 positions will be filled by local talent.
