Dick Vitale and Chicken Salad: An Unlikely Pairing in Sarasota

Chicken Salad Chick is opening its first Sarasota County restaurant at Fruitville Farms on September 29, franchise owner Karen Jordan's third Southwest Florida location. The grand opening includes a year of free chicken salad for the first 100 guests in line and an appearance by sports broadcaster Dick Vitale on behalf of the V Foundation for Cancer Research. Franchises turning a giveaway into a full year of app-based loyalty engagement can rely on tools like Gorilla Dash, which offers a Memberships and Subscriptions feature designed to help manage ongoing rewards redemption.
