Chicken Cottage celebrates its 30th anniversary in style

Chicken Cottage has been celebrating turning 30 since the 26th June with UK-wide consumer, franchisee and staff initiatives.

The 30th anniversary is a significant milestone for Chicken Cottage which opened its first store in Wembley and was the first UK QSR to introduce grilled AND fried halal chicken.

Chicken Cottage thrives on family values and as many of its franchises are family run businesses, the 30th anniversary is an opportunity to reaffirm that everyone involved in the business are all part of one big family.

The activities include promotions on its mobile App, a social media campaign, a Friday voucher giveaway with partner Flipdish, and the launch of two new menu items – a double mountain burger and Mango Kulfi ice cream - and targeted promotions.

The Head Office team visited stores across the UK including Paddington, Southall, Hemel Hempstead, Chelmsford, Canterbury, Manchester, Bury, Shipley and Glasgow to celebrate their  landmark anniversary. This is part of a wider initiative to strengthen engagement and collaboration between the corporate team and the franchisees, which currently number more than 60 outlets across the UK.

Franchisee and staff were also recognised for their commitment to Chicken Cottage including the longest serving employee, Shakeel Zeb from Shipley, who has worked for the company for 16 years.

Ria Dhamija, marketing manager at Chicken Cottage said: “This is a major celebration for everyone involved with Chicken Cottage. This is an opportunity for the franchisees and the staff to engage and connect.”

“We are purposely focusing on our franchisees, some of them who have been involved with Chicken Cottage for many years, as they are the foundations and why the business has achieved this significant milestone.”

Noureen Ahmed who has a store in Lowry Mall, Manchester, and has been a franchisee with Chicken Cottage for 18 years said: “Without them and their hard work and their dedication, this success would not be possible. I’m proud to be a part of this team.”

This was echoed by Faheem Uddin, who has stores in Streatham and West Kensington. He said: “This has been a really good journey with Chicken Cottage. It’s a very good, honest and supportive brand for communities.”

Chicken Cottage is looking for single and multi-unit franchisees across the UK.
