We operate CHESTER’S quick-service restaurants that serve chicken and sides, including bone-in chicken, chicken filets, chicken sandwiches, chicken tenders, and side items like fried potatoes, vegetables, biscuits, toast, and salads. Our restaurants are typically located inside existing retail businesses such as supermarkets and convenience stores, and we also place units in food courts, strip malls, stadiums, and other non-traditional locations. We provide a food service model built for customers who want prepared chicken meals in convenient retail settings. We supply the recipes, branded products, and operating system used to prepare and serve the menu. Our business is focused on chicken-based quick service, with a straightforward menu and operations designed for high-traffic retail environments.
