History

Established in 1946.

It all started in 1946, when Truett Cathy opened his first restaurant, The Dwarf Grill, in Hapeville, Georgia. Credited with inventing Chick-fil-A’s boneless breast of chicken sandwich, Mr. Cathy founded Chick-​fil-​A, Inc. in the early 1960s and pioneered the establishment of restaurants in shopping malls with the opening of the first Chick-​fil-​A Restaurant at a mall in suburban Atlanta in 1967. Since then, Chick-​fil-​A has steadily grown to become the second largest quick-​service chicken restaurant chain in the United States, with over 1,615 locations in 39 states and Washington, D.C. In 2011, annual sales were over $ 4.1 billion. Chick-​fil-​A is still privately held and family owned.

With 44 consecutive years of positive sales growth, Chick-​fil-​A has set itself apart by pioneering innovations and delicious products – including the ever-​popular Chick-​fil-​A® Chicken Sandwich.
