American fast food restaurant chain Chick-fil-A is set to open its first free-standing restaurant in Oʻahu, Hawaii, US.

Set to open on 8 December 2023 in Kapolei Parkway, the new restaurant will be owned and operated by Oʻahu native Spencer Goo.

Goo said: “My journey with Chick-fil-A has truly been a family affair. I wouldn’t be here today without the support of my wife and children. I even had the honour of serving alongside two of my children as Chick-fil-A team members, which was such a rewarding experience.

“Together with my family, we look forward to being your neighbour – as members of the community and as the team behind Chick-fil-A Kapolei Parkway!

“This is a homecoming for me, so I look forward to re-connecting with loved ones, friends and old classmates over a classic Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich at the new restaurant, so come on in to see us!”   

Chick-fil-A Kapolei Parkway will offer dine-in, dual-lane drive-thru and take-out for its guests. Guests can also place their orders via the Chick-fil-A app or online.

Covering an area of more than 5,000ft², the new restaurant can accommodate 101 guests inside and will feature subtle design touches, native landscaping and local design motifs to honour local culture.

Chick-fil-A Kapolei Parkway will be offering its guests breakfast options such as chick-n-minis entrées, Chick-fil-A chicken biscuits and hash brown scramble bowl.

The new venue will create 80 new employment opportunities in the region.

It will be the fourth Chick-fil-A restaurant in the state of Hawaiʻi.  

The company also plans to launch third-party delivery services from its new free-standing restaurant.

In July 2023, Chick-fil-A announced its first drive-through-focused restaurant in Honolulu, Hawai'i.

Could the consumer industry be bolstered by the increased use of AI?

The consumer goods, foodservice, and packaging sectors are undergoing digital transformation, accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic and changing consumer preferences. Data science and ML are strong investments across all areas. These sectors will help scale up the adoption of AI technologies, such as CV, conversational platforms, and smart robots.
