As a young college student, I had a dream of one day opening a restaurant that focused on one thing – serving quality chicken finger meals. I wrote a business plan for the restaurant, and I got the worst grade in the class. The banks would not lend me money. So I took a job as a boilermaker working 90-hour weeks in a Los Angeles refinery to raise my own money. Then I fished commercially for Sockeye Salmon in Alaska, working 20-hour days in dangerous conditions.
Finally, I’d saved enough money, so I returned home to Baton Rouge, Louisiana. I purchased an old building near Louisiana State University and renovated it myself. The very first Raising Cane’s® restaurant, called “The Mothership,” opened in 1996. Thanks to everyone who believed in the vision of Raising Cane’s, we have over 230 restaurants all across the United States.
And now, thanks to our partnership with Alshaya, we are proud to
bring Raising Cane’s to Kuwait. I hope you enjoy our ONE LOVE® - the highest quality chicken finger meals anywhere. Thanks for visiting. We hope to see you again soon.
