The new South Tampa restaurant will be owned and operated by multi-unit franchise owners Tammy and Brad Cochran of Tampa Bay CSC. The Cochrans were first introduced to Chicken Salad Chick in 2007 when founder Stacy Brown brought samples of her classic chicken salad to a baby shower for Tammy's sister-in-law Julie. Nearly 12 years since their first Chicken Salad Chick experience, the husband-and-wife team are proud owners of three restaurants in the Tampa area that offer both exceptional dine-in services and a variety of catering options. In addition to their new South Tampa restaurant and existing locations in   Lutz and East Fowler, the Cochrans have plans to open another Chicken Salad Chick location in Brandon later this year.

"As we reflect on the past four years as Chicken Salad Chick franchise owners, we are still blown away by the warm reception our restaurants have received in the Tampa area," said Tammy Cochran. "With a demand for our fresh Southern specialty, we've been able to expand to now three locations in the area with plans to open a fourth later this year in Brandon. We are thrilled to continually be the go-to lunch spot and event catering company for the residents of Tampa and look forward to bringing our undeniably unique dining experience to more communities throughout our hometown."

The Chicken Salad Chick concept was established in 2008 by founder, Stacy Brown. With more than a dozen original chicken salad flavors as well as fresh side salads, gourmet soups, signature sandwiches and delicious desserts, Chicken Salad Chick's robust menu offers a variety of options suitable for any guest. In 2015, Eagle Merchant Partners purchased a majority stake in Chicken Salad Chick, and under the leadership of CEO Scott Deviney and team, the company now has 118 restaurants currently open in 13 states and remains a standout brand within the fast casual segment.

Chicken Salad Chick in South Tampa will be open Monday - Saturday from 10:30a.m. - 8:30p.m.
