Los Angeles entrepreneur Lorenzo Boucetta and Poulet Brothers, LLC, are behind the California expansion.
“Supporting our franchisees is a fundamental pillar of success and growth at Bojangles. Being there for them at every stage of the franchising process strengthens our relationships and commitment to partnership,” said Jose Armario, CEO of Bojangles. “Lorenzo’s impressive background in business operations, hospitality, and real estate development makes him an ideal partner for us. We are ecstatic to bring Bojangles to Los Angeles residents and look forward to opening our first location in California next year, while anticipating the exciting growth that will follow.”
Bojangles is making big moves
Bojangles currently has more than 800 locations in 12 states. The restaurant has been selected as a WRAL Voters' Choice Award winner and finalist multiple times for its sweet tea and biscuits.
The chicken tenders are highlighted on the streamlined menu, as well as premium salads, and a sides menu that does not feature grits, Cajun pintos or mashed potatoes and gravy. The drink selections include three milkshakes (chocolate, vanilla and Boberry).
Bojangles Vice President of Communications Stacey McCray told WRAL News at the time that there are "no plans to change the menu in our existing restaurants."
