Atlanta, GA-based Chick-fil-A-Franchise Promoted Preston Flynt as Director of Human Resources
About the Company
At Chick-fil-A, Inc. ("Chick-fil-A"), we believe that the success of the Chick-fil-A brand in a community is tied directly to the caliber of the individual franchised Operator who operates the local Chick-fil-A Restaurant. Therefore, we are extremely careful about selecting Operators. In 1946, Chick-fil-A`s founder, Truett Cathy, opened his first restaurant, a small restaurant called the Dwarf Grill, in Hapeville, Georgia, just south of the Atlanta Airport. Years later, in 1967, after inventing and perfecting his Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich, Truett became a pioneer in the quick service restaurant industry by opening his first - and the first of its kind - Chick-fil-A Restaurant in a shopping mall. Since then, the Chick-fil-A system has experienced more than 48 years of positive sales growth and has expanded to more than 2,000 locations in the 43 states and the District of Columbia.
