Raising Cane's, the popular fast-food chain known for its signature chicken fingers, is all set to make its debut in Central Florida next month. The franchise has announced the opening of its first location in Orlando, with plans for two additional locations in the area. This move aims to cater not only to the local community but also to the vast number of tourists who frequent the region.
"We are so excited to open doors and to share our ONE LOVE with the Orlando community and the over 70 million tourists who visit our community each year," expressed Alisa Petermichael, Area Leader of Restaurants.
To meet the staffing requirements for the three Central Florida locations, Raising Cane's plans to hire over 400 employees, ranging from crew members to management-level positions. In anticipation of the grand opening, the franchise has already hired approximately 135 new crew members, who are eager to serve customers and actively engage with the local community.
Situated in close proximity to popular attractions such as Walt Disney World, Universal, and SeaWorld Orlando, the new Raising Cane's restaurant in O-Town West offers convenience for both locals and tourists alike. Upon entering the restaurant, patrons can expect a spacious dining room adorned with artwork that showcases the local community, paying tribute to Orlando's rich heritage and culture.
The inaugural Raising Cane's location in Central Florida is scheduled to open its doors on Tuesday at 7105 Palm Parkway. This opening marks the first of the three planned locations in the region. In addition to the Central Florida expansion, Raising Cane's has ambitious plans to open 100 new restaurants across various markets in 2023.
Currently, Raising Cane's operates more than 750 restaurants across 35 states, as well as in the Middle East and Guam. The franchise has gained a loyal following for its simple yet delectable menu, which focuses on high-quality chicken fingers, accompanied by their famous tangy Cane's Sauce.
With the upcoming launch of its first Central Florida location and the promise to deliver their "ONE LOVE" to the local community and tourists alike, Raising Cane's eagerly anticipates a successful entry into the vibrant and diverse Orlando market.
