Charlotte, NC – Bojangles’, the famous chicken and biscuits chain known for its unique Cajun
flavor and made-from-scratch breakfast served all day, is soaring to new heights with the
brand’s first-ever airport location. The project is breaking ground in January, with a scheduled
opening in April 2008 at Charlotte Douglas International airport, the 9th busiest airport in the
United States. Bojangles’ Restaurants, Inc. welcomes the opportunity to expose its brand to
travelers from the country and around the world.
“Bojangles’ has a strong brand and a large and loyal following. We want to expand its reach
and bring Bojangles’ unique fare and high quality service to travelers who have never had the
opportunity to experience it and also to those who have loved it for years,” said Eric Newman,
Executive Vice President of Development for Bojangles’ Restaurants, Inc. “There is a sense of
pride in opening the first Bojangles’ airport restaurant in our hometown. It is another sign of
Bojangles’ connection to the city of Charlotte, which is visited by travelers from across the
country.”
The Concourse B location will feature a plasma screen and the brand’s newest, updated
interior designs. A true destination restaurant that has a cult-like following among Charlotteans
and throughout the Carolinas and elsewhere, Bojangles’ attracts its loyal customers with its
distinctive menu offerings.
“We are ecstatic about partnering with a proven foodservice operator like Bojangles and
experiencing a new phase of growth for the brand – airport locations,” said Keith Haywood,
Vice President of Marketing and Sales for FDY, Inc. “Bojangles’ and FDY, Inc. share a
commitment to creating the best customer experience possible through careful attention to
details in all aspects of the business.”
