Chick-fil-A represents the pinnacle of operational efficiency and site productivity, serving as the ultimate high-traffic anchor for power centers, lifestyle developments, and high-visibility outparcels. Renowned for its "Remarkable" hospitality and industry-leading average unit volumes (AUV), Chick-fil-A drives unparalleled foot traffic, with drive-through operations accounting for up to 60% of total sales. Under its "Always Forward" 2025–2026 strategic roadmap, the brand is executing a dual-track growth plan: densifying its U.S. footprint (notably in Michigan, Ohio, and the Northeast) while launching major international entries in Europe and Asia. Chick-fil-A’s unique real estate model—where the corporation selects, purchases, and develops the site before leasing it to a local Owner-Operator—provides landlords with the ultimate credit-worthy tenant. For developers, a Chick-fil-A outparcel acts as a "halo tenant," significantly increasing the value of adjacent retail and ensuring consistent, high-frequency visits. With a commitment to community impact and a focus on high-density, high-demand trade areas, Chick-fil-A remains the most sought-after QSR partner for premier retail portfolios worldwide.
