Cowboy Chicken Signs Franchise Agreement for Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
Cowboy Chicken, the popular twelve-unit Dallas based fast casual wood-fire rotisserie chicken brand announces its newest franchisee, V2V Management. The agreement will expand the restaurant concept to Louisiana, beginning with Baton Rouge.
Chris Vince along with Operations Partner Mark Verinder, are excited to expand the Cowboy Chicken concept to Louisiana. Verinder, a long-time successful restaurant operator has been a fan of Cowboy Chicken since 2003, eating regularly at restaurants while in Dallas. Chris was introduced to Cowboy Chicken by Mark, and in the Fall of 2013 had the opportunity to experience the quality and flavor of the food for the first time in Dallas at an LSU/TCU tailgate party catered by Cowboy Chicken. Since then, they have worked tirelessly to bring the taste of Cowboy Chicken to their home market, believing that the unique appeal and flavor of wood-fired chicken will offer a healthy alternative to fried chicken.
Sean Kennedy, Cowboy Chicken President had this to say: “We are excited to work with Chris and Mark to bring Cowboy Chicken to Louisiana. They are hardworking, smart guys with a strong level of operations experience. We are confident that the Cowboy Chicken culture, food and overall brand will be well represented in Baton Rouge. We look forward to their Grand Opening!”
