How Chick-fil-A took over America, explained in 6 charts

Aug 9, 2019, 18:29 IST

Last year, Chick-fil-A went from No. 7 to No. 3 on Nation's Restaurant News' list of the biggest chains in food by sales.

It's an accomplishment made all the more impressive when you realize how many fewer locations Chick-fil-A has than fast-food rivals.

Chick-fil-A manages to beat out competitors with way more locations because each location makes far more than rivals.

And, Chick-fil-A is only getting better at squeezing more money out of each individual restaurant.

A major reason why Chick-fil-A's locations make so much money is that each operator typically only runs one location, meaning they tend to be more hands-on in restaurants. Potential operators' wealth isn't taken into consideration, which helps attract a wide range of applicants.
