Business Social

Local quick service restaurant Quick Chick last Friday (November 17) officially opened its second store along Grants Pen Road in St Andrew.

The event, held in the midst of a tropical storm watch for the island, saw a good turnout of guests and other stakeholders who came out to celebrate another major achievement for the locally grown company, which is already mulling plans for a third store.

In a short ceremony held in the restaurant’s parking lot, Member of Parliament for the St Andrew North Eastern Delroy Chuck, in lauding the company’s directors for their decision to bring their newest location to Grants Pen, said the move signals that the area was now ready and available for greater investments.

Business Social was among guests in attendance and shares these highlights.
