Chick-Fil-A
BBI Architects worked with Chick-fil-A extensively for over a decade on the design of their prototypical restaurants. Our first hurdle was to learn from their senior executives and design staff where the company was taking the brand, to reflect those goals in our designs and to be innovative in anticipating their needs and goals. BBI created an environment where the customer physically interacts with the brand at every level.
BBI Architects managed ever-changing conditions ranging from future project locations, upcoming design changes, equipment changes, and site layouts. BBI was also responsible for the site adaptation of the prototypes to fit the various sites across the nation which varied in lot sizes, climate conditions, traffic patterns, and local codes or ordinances.
To provide the necessary oversight to the design and implementation of the prototype program, BBI was required to manage myriad consultants and vendors that contributed to the overall successful execution of the brand and maintaining the Chick-fil-A image. Protecting the brand and the customer experience was recognized as integral parts of the prototype program. BBI accomplished this by partnering with our client and comprehensively understanding their needs.
BBI is an industry leader for innovative ideas. We were instrumental in incorporating new technology by being the first quick serve restaurant to install self serve kiosks. BBI designed specialty electrical connector housings for kitchen equipment. BBI lead the entire quick serve industry by being the innovator of the double drive thru. This innovation alone increase sales by increasing traffic through the drive thru by approximately 20%.
