Puerto Rico's third restaurant will generate approximately 150 full-time and part-time jobs and will honor 100 Community Heroes with Chick-fil-A food for one year


[Humacao, Puerto Rico (September 8, 2022)] – The new Chick-fil-A ® restaurant will begin serving the Humacao community on Thursday, September 15. Chick-fil-A, Inc. has selected Cristopher Romero as the independent Owner/Operator of the Chick-fil-A franchise in Humacao. 

Located in the Plaza Palma Real shopping center at 350 Carr 3 Ste 660 Humacao, PR 00791, Chick-fil-A Humacao will offer its customers the possibility of eating inside the restaurant, ordering through the servi-cart and ordering food to go; from 6:30 am to 10:00 pm, Monday through Saturday. The Chick-fil-A Humacao restaurant will be the third restaurant on the island, joining the two Chick-fil-A restaurants in Bayamón. 

Locally Owned and Operated
As full-time, hands-on leaders in their restaurants and communities, Chick-fil-A Owner/Operators proudly reside in the areas where they work. 

In Humacao, Romero will be responsible for all day-to-day business activities, including employing approximately 150 full-time and part-time Team Members, customer service, and cultivating relationships with local organizations and businesses. 

Romero began his Chick-fil-A career as a Team Member while attending a university in McAllen, Texas. After working in many leadership positions, he applied and was accepted into Chick-fil-A's Leadership Development program, where he supported various Operators and restaurant openings. 

Romero immigrated to the United States from Mexico as a child and his personal as well as professional journey has uniquely prepared him to become a business owner in Puerto Rico. While supporting the opening of the first Chick-fil-A restaurant in Puerto Rico, Romero fell in love with the island of Puerto Rico and decided that he wanted to not only own a restaurant, but also make the island his home. 

“Being able to call Puerto Rico my new home is a privilege,” Romero said. “I am excited to serve the Humacao community with great-tasting food with top-quality ingredients, but I also look forward to developing future leaders in the community by offering them a place to work, as well as the opportunity to grow and develop professionally.” Read more about Romero here

Caring for the Humacao Community
In honor of the opening of the new restaurant, Chick-fil-A Humacao will recognize 100 heroes from the hospital community: Mennonita Humacao and Hospital Hima San Pablo Humacao, who are making an impact in the area by providing Chick-fil-A meals free for one year. 

In addition, Romero's restaurant plans to participate in the Chick-fil-A Shared Table® Program, an initiative that redirects restaurant surplus food to local shelters, food banks and nonprofit organizations in need. When there is a surplus of food, Chick-fil-A Humacao will donate it to a local community partner. 

Investing in Team Members
Chick-fil-A Operators are committed to recruiting, developing and retaining the best talent and providing a positive work environment for people of all ages and backgrounds. Team Members have opportunities for flexible work hours and leadership growth, competitive salaries and benefits, hands-on training and mentoring, and the opportunity to apply for scholarships to support their continuing education

Delicious Food; Excellent Customer Service
Chick-fil-A restaurants focus on serving customers delicious food made with high-quality ingredients. Restaurants serve chicken raised without antibiotics, starting from the egg. Chick-fil-A's chicken lives up to the utmost commitment by not allowing antibiotics of any kind. Many of the menu items are prepared by hand daily and fruits and vegetables are delivered fresh several times a week. More information on Chick-fil-A food and beverages:
