Mary Brown's Chicken - US Franchise Collective

Canada’s Premier Chicken Quick-Serve Success Story is coming to the USA

Mary Brown’s Chicken, Canada’s largest and fastest-growing quick-service chicken restaurant brand, is recruiting a select group of sophisticated partners to be part of the next chapter of our remarkable success story.

With 19 consecutive years of same-store sales growth and a rapidly expanding footprint across Canada, England, Northern Ireland, Mexico, India, and Pakistan, Mary Brown’s offers a rare opportunity to invest in a brand that’s well-established, highly profitable, and built for growth.

What sets us apart? It starts with our best-in-class menu. From our Signature Chicken and golden-crisp Taters (seasoned, breaded potato wedges) to the iconic Big Mary® Sandwich and indulgent Tater Poutine™, every item is handcrafted in small batches using premium ingredients and a proprietary cooking method perfected over 55+ years. Our custom-engineered cookers use a higher temperature to deliver juicy, never greasy chicken with an unmistakable flavor and texture you won’t find anywhere else.

MB Chicken is more than a franchise—it’s a partnership. At Mary Brown’s, you join a team of passionate industry professionals who provide leadership and support across all functional areas and are 100% dedicated to your success.

We’re looking for a select group of experienced partners to lead our U.S. expansion and tap into a brand with deep operational expertise and robust support systems. If you’re ready to introduce a proven, premium chicken concept to your market and build a business with serious momentum, Mary Brown’s Chicken is your next big opportunity.
