bb.q Chicken Carrollton & Texas AR (Area Representative)
After carefully considering the various franchise options, I ended up choosing bb.q Chicken because it is second to none in terms of taste and quality. Also, at that time, this franchise was also the only one officially registered in the United States with safe financial and strategic backing from the headquarters. As a Texas Area Representative and Owner, I treat each of the locations in Texas as my very own because we all share the same success and this mindset allows me to maintain close relationships with the other franchisees.

bb.q Chicken Chino Hills/ Alhambra / Temple City / Rowland Heights
After 25 years of office work, I was thinking about a new opportunity for ‘growth’ and an acquaintance introduced me to bb.q Chicken. We had a lot of worries and concerns about whether we could do well as we had no business experience. However bb.q Chicken has provided so much support from the initial sign-up request to the opening preparation process and now we have 4 locations. That said, the biggest reason I decided to grow with bb.q Chicken is the management’s clear vision for growth and their prioritization of the franchisees’ success. I can tell that this philosophy is thoroughly practiced at bb.q Chicken.
