About Chick-fil-A

With more than 2000 restaurants in about 47 states, Chick-fil-A operates one of the largest fast-food chains that specializes in chicken menu items. Chairman Truett Cathy founded this chain in 1946, which was originally open 24 hours per day. However, Mr. Cathy established the policy that all restaurants be closed on Sundays to guarantee family time each week, and we continue to honor this today.

At Main Street, we strive to honor Mr. Cathy’s legacy and continue building on his vision: "To glorify God by being a faithful steward of all that is entrusted to us and to have a positive influence on all who come into contact with Chick-fil-A” in a “workplace culture where everyone is treated with honor, dignity, and respect."
