Wichita is witnessing the birth of yet another homegrown good franchise

25 Mar Wichita is witnessing the birth of yet another homegrown good franchise

Max Sheets started Chick N Max in 2017 and now is offering the business as a multiunit franchise for the first time.

Sheet says they have learned a lot along the way and have really perfected their process. That’s when he knew it was time to start franchising.

The pandemic also taught him some things, too.

Although the last year was a challenge for the fast food restaurant, it was good for them because they have drive-throughs, their sales had been really good.

There are three Wichita Chick N Max restaurants, and the one at the Village at Greenwich does not have a drive-through. Sheets said he’ll never again build a Chick N Max without one.

Resulting from COVID and the pandemic, the restaurant offered discounted family meals and community support meals during the pandemic. They also now have a well-developed online ordering system and is close to having an app as well.

In addition to franchising, Sheets said he’s planning on at least a couple more Chick N Max restaurants in Wichita.
