From Poverty to Prosperity: The S. Truett Cathy Story
Chick-fil-A’s Founder Built the Franchise System With Faith-Based Principles
While Chick-fil-A founder Samuel Truett Cathy was growing up, the notion of becoming a billionaire franchisor was probably the furthest thing from his mind.
Truett Cathy's father was an unsuccessful insurance salesman, who was often gone and left the family's financial burdens on Truett's mother.
He grew up in poverty and spent his free time helping his mother in the kitchen of the boarding house she ran. Little did he know that Chick-fil-A would become one of the largest quick-service chicken restaurant chains in the U.S.
and a widely recognized great place to work. With stiff competition in the ‘Chicken Wars’ from McDonald’s, Wendy’s, Popeyes and other fast-food franchise brands, Chick-fil-A stands out with its friendly, quick service, quality food and amazing culture.
Here, we look into the legendary franchisor’s life, Christian faith and philanthropy as well as the Chick-fil-A’s founding and growth.
