Chick-fil-A has announced plans to open its first permanent restaurants in Great Britain and Singapore later this year.
In an Aug. 26 news release, the chicken chain announced it will open its first restaurant in Leeds in the fall, as well as a location in Singapore in late 2025, marking the start of a decade-long, $75 million investment in Asia.
Chick-fil-A outlined plans in 2023 to open restaurants in Europe and Asia by 2026 and five international locations by 2030, according to a news release at the time. The company announced in 2023 that it planned to open five locally owned and operated restaurants in the United Kingdom in the first two years of the plan and continue to expand in the U.K. from there. All in, the brand plans to invest over $100 million in the U.K. over 10 years.
In September 2024, the company announced it would open new restaurants in Belfast, Leeds, Liverpool and London, marking the first locations outside North America for the chain.
“Expanding in both Europe and Asia is a meaningful milestone for Chick-fil-A,” said Andrew T. Cathy, chief executive officer of Chick-fil-A, Inc., in the Aug. 26 news release. “The investments we’re making in the U.K. and Singapore not only present opportunities for our business, but are also a chance for us to bring what makes Chick-fil-A special to new places – great food and remarkable hospitality, our unique franchise model and the positive impact we have in communities.”
