The chicken chain has exploded on the west coast over the last few years, and it now operates over a dozen locations in BC and 10 in the Lower Mainland alone.

Last month, Popeyes opened a restaurant in Victoria as well.

Dished was told that the brand hopes to open more franchises on Vancouver Island in places like Courtney, Parksville, and Duncan.
