Raising Cane’s was founded on August 28, 1996, when owner and founder Todd Graves opened the first Restaurant, bringing his Chicken Finger dream to life. The road there wasn’t easy. Graves’ college business plan earned the lowest grade in class, and banks repeatedly turned him down. Determined, he worked 90-hour weeks as a boilermaker in California, then spent a season commercial fishing in Alaska to fund his vision. Originally planning to call it “Sockeye’s,” Graves instead named the Restaurant after his beloved yellow Labrador, Raising Cane. On opening night, he waved Customers in from the street, keeping the doors open until 3:30 a.m.
Today, nearly 30 years later, Raising Cane’s still serves the same menu that made the Brand famous and has grown its presence to over 1,000 Restaurants across 40+ states with plans to open nearly 100 new Restaurants this year.
When the Statesboro Restaurant opens on Aug. 24, Customers can expect an opening-day celebration featuring giveaways, Community involvement and more. Customers who arrive early can enter for a chance to win FREE Cane’s for a Year!
As part of Raising Cane’s commitment to the Communities it serves, the new Restaurant will actively support local schools, sports teams and nonprofit organizations through fundraising opportunities, sponsorships and Community partnerships.
