Restaurant Brings Approximately 100 Full- and Part-Time Jobs to Community, Honors 100 Local Heroes with Free Chick-fil-A Entrées for a Year 


MAUMEE, Ohio (Dec. 2, 2024) – A new Chick-fil-A® restaurant will begin serving the Maumee community on Thursday, Dec. 5, 2024. Chick-fil-A, Inc. has selected Amanda Natter as the independent franchised local Owner-Operator of Chick-fil-A Maumee. 

Located at 603 Pointe Blvd., Chick-fil-A Maumee will be open from 6:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Saturday for dine-in, drive-thru, carry-out and third-party delivery. The new restaurant will also feature Mobile Thru, a fully dedicated lane in the drive-thru where Guests can pick up orders placed ahead of time on the Chick-fil-A® App.  

The Maumee restaurant joins seven other Chick-fil-A restaurants serving the wider Toledo market. 

Locally Owned and Operated
Chick-fil-A’s franchise model is essential to how the restaurant serves others. Most Chick-fil-A restaurants are owned and operated by a single individual, which means Chick-fil-A’s local Owner-Operators are small business owners, not passive investors, who work in their restaurants side by side with their Team Members each day. 

In Maumee, Natter will be responsible for all day-to-day activities of the business, including employing approximately 100 full- and part-time Team Members, serving Guests, cultivating relationships with local organizations and businesses, and tailoring philanthropic efforts to meet the Maumee community’s needs.  

An Ohio native, Natter was born and raised just seven miles from her new restaurant. She began her journey with Chick-fil-A in 2013, serving as a Team Member while completing her college degree. Her first and only job, Natter quickly realized working at Chick-fil-A was more than a part-time job—it was an opportunity to foster genuine connections and make a meaningful impact in the community. After graduating from the University of Toledo in 2017, she continued to build her career with Chick-fil-A, serving in various leadership positions until she joined the Chick-fil-A® Leadership Development Program, where she gained valuable leadership skills through hands-on business experience. Now, with more than a decade of experience, she looks forward to opening a restaurant in her hometown and creating a space that feels like home for everyone.  

“What I love about Chick-fil-A is that it’s a place where the entire community can come together to create memories, build meaningful relationships and enjoy delicious food,” Natter expressed. “Chick-fil-A has played a profound role in my life. Not only have I begun a lifelong career here, but I also met my husband through this journey. My sincere hope is that everyone who visits my restaurant can experience the simple joy of good food and even better company.”  

Caring for the Maumee Community
The Chick-fil-A business is built to add positive impact beyond profit, including giving back to local communities. Chick-fil-A local Owner-Operators are empowered to support the neighborhoods they serve with a key focus on hunger, education and specific community needs.  

In celebration of the opening, Chick-fil-A, Inc. has donated $25,000 to Feeding America to support local hunger relief efforts of Toledo Northwestern Ohio Food Bank, a Feeding America partner food bank. 

Natter’s restaurant will plan to participate in the Chick-fil-A Shared Table® program, an initiative that redirects surplus food from the restaurant to local soup kitchens, shelters, food banks and nonprofits in need. To date, more than 30 million meals have been created from Chick-fil-A Shared Table donations from over 2,200 Chick-fil-A restaurants throughout the U.S. and Canada.  

In addition, Chick-fil-A Maumee is recognizing 100 local heroes making an impact in the Maumee area by providing them with free Chick-fil-A entrées for a year.  

Team Member Investment
Chick-fil-A local Owner-Operators strive to hire, develop and retain top talent, helping future leaders optimize their skills and providing pathways for personal and professional development in a welcoming, purpose-driven environment. A career at Chick-fil-A offers a wide range of benefits, including hands-on training and mentoring, competitive pay and benefits, the chance to apply for scholarships to support continued education, and the flexibility to thrive in and outside of work. Chick-fil-A’s local Owner-Operators are committed to preparing their team for the future, wherever it may lead. To learn more about careers at Chick-fil-A, click here

Delicious Food; Outstanding Customer Service
Chick-fil-A is known for creating a welcoming, remarkable restaurant experience, starting with friendly service, a warm welcome and quality food, including the original Chick-fil-A® Chicken Sandwich.   

Made with a real, whole, boneless breast of chicken with no added fillers, the breaded chicken is pressure cooked in fully-refined peanut oil. To complement the great-tasting chicken, fresh produce is delivered to Chick-fil-A restaurants up to six times a week for the best quality and flavor. 

Guests of Chick-fil-A Maumee can place an order for pickup, dine-in, drive-thru third-party delivery or Mobile Thru on the Chick-fil-A® App or online.
