Chicken Salad Chick of Houma is the second location opened by franchise owners Chad and Amanda Ducote, further expanding their footprint with the brand.
Since opening their first location in Thibodaux in September, the overwhelming positive response from customers, combined with the opportunity to serve more communities, made expanding to a second location a natural next step.

"Our love for our community has only strengthened since opening our first location," said Chad Ducote, co-franchise owner of Chicken Salad Chick of Houma. "The people of this area are some of the kindest and most generous you'll ever meet, and their unwavering support has meant everything to us as we expand."

Amanda Ducote, co-franchise owner, added, "Opening our second location in Houma has felt like a match made in chicken salad heaven. We take pride in making every guest feel at home from the moment they walk through our doors, and there's nothing better than seeing their faces light up as they experience Chicken Salad Chick for the first time."

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 Houma restaurant offers in-restaurant dining, drive-thru, take-out, third-party delivery, and catering options.

"We're excited to keep growing Chicken Salad Chick's presence in Louisiana and are looking forward to sharing our delicious menu with new guests in Houma," said Scott Deviney, president and CEO of Chicken Salad Chick. "Chad and Amanda are the perfect franchise owners to support our expansion, and we're confident they'll embrace and promote our values within their community."

Giving back to the community is an important focus for the Houma team and the Chicken Salad Chick brand, which established the CSC Foundation to support CURE Childhood Cancer and local food banks with fundraisers throughout the year. As part of pre-opening Friends & Family events in Houma, the restaurant will be raising money for Empower Life, a local nonprofit that provides meals to those that are less fortunate in our community.

Chicken Salad Chick of Houma will be open Monday – Saturday from 10:30am – 8pm. For more information, visit www.chickensaladchick.com. Follow Chicken Salad Chick on Facebook and Instagram for the latest news and trends.
