History & Growth Trajectory
Created in 1996 in Baton Rouge, LC, Raising Cane’s gained traction by focusing solely on chicken fingers and customer experience. From early franchising efforts, the company has shifted toward corporate-driven expansion, prioritizing control and consistency. Rapid scaling occurred through 2024–2025 with hundreds of new stores across strategic U.S. and Middle Eastern markets
