Daddy’s Chicken Shack Franchise traces its origins to the vibrant streets of Los Angeles, where in 2018, it quickly captured the hearts and taste buds of locals, establishing itself as a beloved culinary gem. Its irresistible fried chicken creations drew the attention of David Liniger, the visionary founder of REMAX, who recognized its potential and acquired the brand, transforming it into a national sensation through strategic franchising. Today, Daddy’s Chicken Shack boasts a network of thriving franchise restaurants alongside corporate locations, with ambitious plans to launch over 150 units in the next five years. Offering a diverse menu featuring delectable chicken sandwiches, fresh salads, and addictive popcorn chicken, the brand prides itself on using only the finest ingredients, employing cutting-edge technology, and delivering unparalleled customer service at every touchpoint. From its humble beginnings in LA to its nationwide expansion, Daddy’s Chicken Shack remains a beacon of culinary excellence, delivering mouthwatering flavors and unforgettable dining experiences to chicken enthusiasts across the country.
