HCK Hot Chicken Tampa co-owner Hunter Boon stated: “After experiencing the great flavours of HCK Hot Chicken at the Sarasota location and learning how simple the process is to be involved with the franchise, I called my brother and mother to tell them we should get into the chicken business.

“We truly care about customers and are focused on offering them fabulous food and fabulous hospitality. Our team is excited to celebrate our restaurant’s grand opening and share this very special moment with our Tampa community.”

Hunter Boon has more than four decades of experience in the food and beverage industry.

As part of the opening celebration, the restaurant will also offer guests a chance to win free sandwiches for a year.

HCK Hot Chicken Tampa co-owner Ross Boon said: “Hunter and I are thrilled to team up for this endeavour and to share bold and amazing food with the greater Tampa area residents and visitors.

“My brother brings extensive industry experience and an immense passion for the HCK Hot Chicken concept that will be a major driver in our success.”

In August 2023, HCK Hot Chicken announced that it would open a new restaurant venue in Upstate New York.

The restaurant brand will be operated by franchisee Naiem Rizek.
