Fried chicken chain coming to Kansas City area as part of its rapid expansion plan

A Wichita-based fried chicken chain is planning to bring its sandwiches and golden tenders to the Kansas City area.

Chick N Max is looking to open several locations on both sides of the state line.

The company wants to franchise in Kansas, Missouri, Iowa, Minnesota, Oklahoma and Texas, according to a media release.

In Kansas, Chick N Max aims to open six to eight restaurants in Topeka and the Kansas side of the KC metro.

In Missouri, it’s planning five to seven restaurants in St. Louis, Columbia and the Kansas City area.

“Solidifying our franchise expansion is a milestone we can feel proud about reaching in just a few short years since our launch in 2018,” CEO Max Sheets said in the release. “Now, we’re excited about turning the page to this next chapter of our evolution and look forward to bringing our innovative take on chicken to more markets across the Central United States.”

Chick N Max has seven locations in Kansas, South Dakota and Texas, but it plans to open 50 more over the next two years.
