The company now has 200 locations in the U.S., with the rights to more than 700 franchise locations in the U.S., Middle East and Canada.

Dave’s Hot Chicken offers hot chicken sliders and tenders, along with sides of kale slaw, mac & cheese and seasoned French fries. In January, it added cauliflower sliders and cauliflower bites.

The first location is expected to open in Conyers, according to What Now Atlanta.
