Coming to Ohio - Dave's Hot Chicken

Los Angeles-based restaurant, Dave’s Hot Chicken, will be landing new locations in Ohio with the help of Goodman Real Estate Services Group LLC. Out-of-state restaurant franchises have been looking to Ohio and surrounding Midwest states to expand and create new opportunities for growth. Dave’s Hot Chicken is actively looking to open 28 locations in the Midwest, with plans for 15 locations in Indiana, and 13 in Columbus, Ohio.
 
Goodman Real Estate agents Daniel Clark, Vice President and Manager, Columbus Office; and Chad Hamrick, Senior Director, Columbus Office, have been assisting the Dave Diggity LLC franchisee in finding prime tenant space in the Columbus area. The Nashville-style restaurant was started by best friends Dave Kopushyan, Arman Oganesyan, and Tommy and Gary Rubenyan in an East Hollywood parking lot in 2017. Since then, they have perfected their hot chicken recipe to satisfy customers in California, Toronto, Oregon, Nevada, Colorado, Texas, and soon Ohio and Indiana. They specialize in mouthwatering hot-chicken sandwiches and tenders, along with homemade sides and secret sauce. Already secured Dave’s Hot Chicken locations in Columbus are anticipated to open as soon as late 2021 or early 2022.
