Chicken Salad Chick of Edmond is owned and operated by Troy Morrison, a seasoned restaurant franchise owner with an extensive portfolio. In addition to overseeing three Chicken Salad Chick restaurants, Morrison manages more than 100 Taco Bell and Wingstop franchises nationwide. His expansion plans for Chicken Salad Chick are ambitious, as he’s secured the rights to four more locations across the Oklahoma City and Tulsa markets. The Edmond location marks his fourth opening and the third in the Oklahoma City market under his franchise group, Meauxmentum Strategies and Investments.

Morrison has been rapidly growing his Chicken Salad Chick footprint, having opened Chicken Salad Chick of Moore in August 2024 and Oklahoma City – Quail Springs in October 2024. His expansion efforts extend beyond Oklahoma; in early 2025, he acquired the rights to develop 14 additional locations across Austin, TX, and Indianapolis, IN. Most recently, he celebrated the opening of his third location in Pflugerville, TX in late-March 2025.

“I’m excited about my future with Chicken Salad Chick and the opportunity to continue expanding with such a strong and beloved brand,” said Troy Morrison, franchise owner of Chicken Salad Chick of Edmond. “From Oklahoma to Texas and beyond, I see tremendous potential for growth and communities seeking fresh dining options. The brand’s unique concept, focus on hospitality, and commitment to quality food resonates deeply with my team and our guests. I look forward to sharing Chicken Salad Chick’s one-of-a-kind experience with the Edmond community soon.”

Chicken Salad Chick is known for its dozen-plus variety of made-from-scratch chicken salad flavors, fresh side salads, gourmet soups, signature sandwiches, and desserts. The new Edmond restaurant offers in-restaurant and outdoor patio dining, take-out, third-party delivery, and catering options.

“We’re thrilled to continue expanding in Oklahoma with Troy Morrison,” said Scott Deviney, president and CEO of Chicken Salad Chick. “A little over a month ago, Troy opened his third Chicken Salad Chick restaurant in Texas and quickly saw success. His strong business acumen, paired with his passion for hospitality, makes him an outstanding franchise owner to continue growing with in Oklahoma. Edmond is a fantastic community that values fresh, high-quality food and a welcoming atmosphere – both of which are at the heart of what we do. We look forward to seeing him bring even more Oklahomans together over a meal at Chicken Salad Chick.”

Giving back to the community is an important focus for the Edmond team and the Chicken Salad Chick brand, which established the CSC Foundation to support CURE Childhood Cancer and local food banks with fundraisers throughout the year. As part of pre-opening Friends & Family events in Edmond, the restaurant will be raising money for The Toby Keith Foundation, which funds the building and operation of the “OK Kids Korral,” a home-away-from-home for children battling cancer.

Chicken Salad Chick of Edmond will be open Monday – Saturday from 10am – 8pm. For more information, visit www.chickensaladchick.com. Follow Chicken Salad Chick on Facebook and Instagram for the latest news and trends.
