Chicken Express

About Chicken Express

Chicken Express was launched in March 1988 in Benbrook, TX and in October 1988 in Mineral Wells, TX. The company was originally founded by the Stuarts after almost a decade of experience under another franchise. Residing in Mineral Wells, the Stuarts expanded the Chicken Express name and product by being one of the very first fast food chicken delivery businesses, making their slogan “our chicken can’t fly, so we deliver.” The delivery business was very successful for spreading the word and product, so from 1990 to 1994 all new franchises utilized the dine-in, drive-thru, or delivery concept. Now with the expanded stores, the major customer base is drive-thru; dine-in; carhop (at select locations) and especially catering for any occasion or tailgating event.
