“It is incredibly rewarding to see the positive impact our restaurants have in the local neighborhoods we call home,” said Carl Thoder, director of operations for Sing Bev Hospitality. “Our local managers and restaurant teams are passionate about creating welcoming spaces where guests can gather and enjoy fresh, wholesome fare. As we continue to grow, we learn more about our Chick fans every day and how we can better care for and connect with each community. We’re excited to bring that same commitment to Duncan.”
Chicken Salad Chick is known for its dozen-plus variety of made-from-scratch chicken salad flavors, fresh sides, gourmet soups, signature sandwiches, and desserts. The new Duncan restaurant offers in-restaurant dining, a convenient drive-thru, take-out, third-party delivery, and catering options.
“Sing Bev Hospitality has played a key role in helping Chicken Salad Chick grow across the Carolinas,” said Scott Deviney, CEO and president of Chicken Salad Chick. “They have always shown a genuine commitment to the brand and to our mission of ‘Spreading Joy, Enriching Lives, and Serving Others.’ They’ve even been named Chicken Salad Chick’s ‘Owner of the Year’ twice, which really speaks to the dedication and care they bring to everything they do.”
Giving back to the community is an important focus for the Sing Bev Hospitality team and the Chicken Salad Chick brand, which established the CSC Foundation to support CURE Childhood Cancer and local food banks with fundraisers throughout the year. As part of pre-opening Friends & Family events, the Duncan restaurant will be raising money for the American Cancer Society of South Carolina.
