Big Chicken, a fast-food chicken restaurant chain started five years ago by basketball Hall of Famer Shaquille O Neal, will expand into Tennessee this fall with new restaurants in Hixson and downtown Chattanooga.
He plans to eventually open ten or more Big Chicken locations in the franchise territories he acquired last year in the Chattanooga, Nashville, and Knoxville markets.
The potential lease could mean that Zaxby's will move its headquarters from Athens, more than two years after selling a stake in its business to Goldman Sachs.
