Chicken Salad Chick of Oklahoma City is spearheaded by Troy Morrison, who recently opened Chicken Salad Chick of Moore on August 28. Oklahoma City is his second franchise opening in a short period of time, but Morrison has big expansion plans for the state. He’s acquired the rights to four more Chicken Salad Chick locations in Oklahoma, three in Wichita, KS and 11 in Austin, TX, with plans to open locations in all three states in 2025.

“I’m excited to further expand Chicken Salad Chick in Oklahoma with the opening of my second location in Oklahoma City, just a month after launching my first restaurant in Moore,” said Troy Morrison, franchise owner of Chicken Salad Chick of Oklahoma City. “Chicken Salad Chick offers a unique dining experience that stands out amongst other restaurant franchises. Our menu caters to a broad audience, from families to those seeking a quick and nutritious meal. I chose to invest in this brand because it offers something fresh and special for my community. I’m honored to continue growing with Chicken Salad Chick and can’t wait to welcome both new and returning guests at the grand opening!”

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 restaurant offers in-restaurant and patio dining, drive-thru, take-out, third-party delivery, and catering options. The Oklahoma City opening marks the brand’s fifth location in Oklahoma, following recent openings in Broken Arrow, Moore and two in Tulsa. 

“We’re excited to grow Chicken Salad Chick’s footprint in the Oklahoma City area,” said Scott Deviney, president and CEO of Chicken Salad Chick. “Troy Morrison has proven to be an exceptional franchise owner, and we’re proud to have him as a valued member of the Chicken Salad Chick family. He's been instrumental in our strategic return to this market, which has been a significant focus for us in 2024. With his extensive experience in restaurant franchising, we’re confident he will continue to thrive as he expands his business portfolio with additional locations. We eagerly anticipate Troy’s growth and continued success.”

Giving back to the community is an important focus for the Oklahoma City 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 Oklahoma City, the restaurant will be raising money for The Toby Keith Foundation, which funds the building and operation of the “OK Kids Korral,” a home-away-from-home for children battling cancer.

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