Our Story

From two friends with a dream to a national chicken phenomenon, it’s a true story packed with hard work, entrepreneurial spirit, and a bunch of Z words.

Sauce Is Our Secret Sauce™

Sure—we built this house on delicious chicken, but nobody can out-sauce us! From our legendary Zax Sauce® to the day’s newest flavor—pick a favorite and take great chicken to the next level. Life’s too short to be bland! For us, sauce isn’t just a flavor-enhancer—it’s a game-changer.

Modern Chicken, Modern Life

Mealtime doesn’t sit around a table the way it used to. Today, people need a better take on chicken: without the bones, without the bucket and without the hassle. We’re not stuck in the past—we keep evolving to create premium-quality boneless chicken meals for the way people want to eat today.

Southern Hospitality 2.0

Traditional values have become so rare these days that they feel refreshing and new. We take our Southern heritage of generosity and hospitality and bring it into these modern days. We combine inclusivity, enthusiastic service and a touch of technology every day...all to put a smile on someone’s face.

Every Day from Z to A

While others take the conventional approach (from A to Z), we look at things differently. We don’t stop at good enough—we push for the “Z” in all we do. We put ourselves in the shoes of our customers and consider every moment a chance to be special. These thoughtful touches make the Zaxbys experience unique and bring a bit of joy to your day.

Entrepreneur’s Heart

Born from the passion of two college-age entrepreneurs, Zaxbys believes in the American Dream—with hard work, passion and resourcefulness, anything is possible. We build strong values and lasting relationships on heart and a handshake. No matter how much we grow, we’ll never lose the spirit that got us where we are today.
