Home Depot Fuel Centers Add Chester's Chicken On The Fly

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. -- The Home Depot Fuel Centers is partnering with Chester's on the opening of six new Chester’s Chicken On The Fly locations this week.

Chester's grab-n-go concept, Chester's Chicken On The Fly, offers customers a convenient meal solution, while providing the store with minimal investment and virtually no additional labor, according to the vendor. The store-level process is simply remove product from freezer, cook, pack and sell.

The Home Depot Fuel Center's first convenience store and retail fuel location opened February 2006 in Brentwood, Tenn. It was followed in short order by two more locations in Tennessee, and another in the metro area of Atlanta where The Home Depot has its corporate headquarters. Currently, The Home Depot operates six Fuel Centers, all in Tennessee and Georgia.

"Chester's Chicken On The Fly will be a great addition to The Home Depot Fuel Centers," stated Todd Bostian, merchant for The Home Depot Fuel Centers. "This program will allow our customers a quick and easy meal solution. We, at The Home Depot Fuel Centers, are excited about the future of Chester's Chicken On The Fly in our stores."

Chester's Chicken On The Fly offers prepackaged menu items, such as fried or baked chicken tenders, potato wedges and biscuits, for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

"Chester's is extremely excited about the introduction of our new grab-n-go concept, Chicken On The Fly, within The Home Depot Fuel Centers," stated James Venable, Chester's vice president of operations. "This concept offers The Home Depot Fuel Centers a minimal footprint and investment while still providing our great tasting tenders, wedges and biscuits.”
