Dave’s Hot Chicken, a Los Angeles-based street food concept with over 60 locations, has inked a franchise agreement with Najib and Tarek Haidar to open the first five locations throughout South Texas.
“With already 11 stores open throughout Texas, this latest signed agreement with Najib and Tarek further strengthens our presence in the state,” Bill Phelps, CEO of Dave’s Hot Chicken, said in a company press release. “Now, we’ll be able to reach new markets in the southern portion of the Lone Star State and introduce our craveable product to even more legions of fans.”
The Haiders were introduced to Dave’s Hot Chicken via Instagram.
“As soon as we saw how delicious the food looked in photographs, our interest was piqued immediately,” Najib Haidar said in the release. “After trying the food, we knew the hype behind Dave’s was real and that we had to get involved with the brand through franchising. There really isn’t anything like Dave’s Hot Chicken available in South Texas, and I think it’ll be an instant hit with the local communities.”
The Haidar family’s operating group owns 24 IHOP and Walk On’s Sports Bistreaux locations throughout Texas.
