Two Chick-fil-A's in the Capital Region

Anything but bird-brained, but these two men certainly had chicken on their minds! Meet the two men recently introduced as the owners/operators of the two newest Chick-fil-A restaurants in the Capital Region which are slated to open in the area later this summer.

Where are the restaurants going?

On Friday, Chick-fil-A announced the Owner/Operators that will serve in its two new Capital Region restaurants slated to open later this summer.

One will be at 304 Clifton Park Center Road in Clifton Park, while the other will be at 502 North Greenbush Road in Rensselaer.

The lottery of fast-food franchises

I would imagine that Chick-fil-A sets pretty high standards and owning/operating one is a daunting task, but owners are chosen very carefully, and the two men slated to run the restaurants in the Capital Region appear to be quite credentialed.
