December 18, 2018 by Chris LangeChicken is in, and Chick-fil-A seems to be cashing in on this. According to a recent report by Kalinowski Equity Research, this chicken chain will be the third-largest fast-food chain by sales in the country next year.
Sales are expected to grow as much as 15% to $10 billion, on top of its 14.2% growth from the previous year.

In the past year, Chick-fil-A stores grew roughly 8% to more than 2,100.
Comparable sales are estimated to be increasing in the range of 4.5% to 7.5% as the company expands further into the Northeast and Midwest of the United States.

Chick-fil-A reported more than $9 billion in revenue in 2017, which marks 50 consecutive years of sales growth. A leader in customer service satisfaction, consumers voted Chick-fil-A, Inc. #4 in Harris Poll’s annual corporate reputation survey, ranking the company 4th out of 100 in 2018.
