Chick-fil-A is set to become the third-biggest restaurant chain in the United States, only surpassed by McDonald's and Starbucks.

What are the details?

The Wall Street Journal tweeted the news on Wednesday, writing, "Chick-fil-A is poised to become the third-biggest U.S. restaurant chain by sales, trailing only McDonald's and Starbucks."
Chick-fil-A retweeted the news, writing, "It's our pleasure."



The outlet shared a video the same day on its website, explaining how Chick-fil-A was able to rise to such meteoric levels.
Titled, "How Chick-fil-A Got Big by Keeping Its Menu Small Chick-fil-A," the video explained how the restaurant is building its business on "the strength of a simple chicken sandwich."
Some of the reasons The Wall Street Journal attributes to Chick-fil-A's rise include:
  • Simple ingredients
  • Simple menu additions
  • Efficient drive-through performance
  • The company's single-owner franchise system
  • America's taste for chicken has grown, while beef has dropped
  • Increased market share when compared to other chicken-centric restaurant chains

  1. We enjoyed Chick-fil-A on many occasions while living in NC. The employees and managers always seemed to be having a good time. No one wants to buy a meal from a surly jerk. Notice how the article did not mention their "controversial" adherence to Christian values and not operating on Sundays.

  2. Yuck. Their "sandwiches" are full of gristle and connective tissue.
