Raising Cane's Chicken Fingers’ Post

Our Co-CEO & COO, AJ Kumaran, recently sat down with The Exchange on CNBC to speak to our history, our passion, our Golden Birthday and our unique opening in Boston. In addition, AJ talked about several key business points including price, profits, labor and our positive same restaurant sales for the last 15 years in a row.    2024 has been another one for the books and we’re excited to see how the year closes out given our year-to-date and aggressive plans ahead – always supporting our Crew, Customers and Communities. #OneLove #Growth

28 years of golden Chicken Fingers calls for a celebration! A golden birthday is a momentous occasion when someone's date of birth aligns with the age they're turning – an occurrence so rare that instead of celebrating the day, we're celebrating all year. Yesterday, August 28, we began to celebrate our 28th birthday with the opening of our 828th restaurant in Boston to kick off a year of golden moments beginning with a pledge to give back $28M to local communities throughout the coming year. To help celebrate in Boston, "Big Papi," Jrue Holiday, and JVKE – all of whom have "gold" in common between MLB Championship trophies, NBA Championship trophies, Olympic medals, and a hit single called "golden hour" – helped us open the milestone Restaurant in golden style. A big 'thank you' to all involved in making this opening a special one and here's to a year-long celebration! Cane's has grown to more than 800 Restaurants across more than 40 states and continues opening 100 Restaurants each year. With sights set on becoming a top 10 US Restaurant brand by 2030, we're looking to grow to more than 150K Crewmembers across 1,600 Restaurants and $10B in sales.

Forbes recently announced their America’s Best Employers for Women report for 2024 and we are again on the list! Forbes partnered with market research firm Statista to survey more than 150,000 women working at companies with at least 1,000 employees in the United States. Survey respondents were asked how likely they were to recommend their current—and previous—employers, and if they’d recommend any employers they knew through their industry or through family and friends who work there. Participants were also asked to rate their current employers in such areas as working environment, pay equity, parental leave, and the company’s handling of incidents related to sexual misconduct and discrimination. Responses from the last three years were considered.

Hurricane Beryl hit hard this past week and impacted the local Communities, as well as many of our Restaurants in the Houston area. It was important to us to send some love and support to our Crewmembers who were going through a hard time in wake of the storm. Our Cane’s Love team at the Restaurant Support Office was quick to react and sent out some Cane’s Love in the form of 52 restaurant relief packages, piled high with snacks, games and essentials to assist over 3,500 Crew and Managers. Our thoughts and well wishes are with all those who were impacted by this hurricane, and those who are still without power. What is Cane’s Love? Cane’s Love is a best-in-class recognition program dedicated to showing our awesome Crew the Respect, Recognition and Reward they absolutely deserve.
