Nadeem said: “Growing up, we had a Church’s Texas Chicken near our school and we would visit regularly to enjoy the delicious food and spend time together.

“We looked into franchising after moving to Ontario and we are so excited to be sharing the bold taste of Texas with others here.”

Church’s Texas Chicken forayed into Canada more than 40 years ago, making it one of the brand’s first international markets.
