Huey Magoo’s is a fast-casual concept founded in 2004 by Matt Armstrong and Thad Hudgens, two southern boys with a passion for quality chicken and a penchant for serving others. Now, former executives from one of the fastest-growing franchise chains, Wingstop, have partnered with the founders from Huey Magoo’s. Both partners have taken their similar passion and bullseye focus for the perfect chicken tender by crafting it into everything that Huey Magoo’s offers today.
Alongside the original two co-founders, the Huey Magoo’s team is led by President and CEO Andy Howard, Chairman of the Board Wes Jablonski, COO Mike Sutter, VP of Operations Matt Poleos and Board of Directors Member Bill Knight.
As the country’s premiere chicken tender concept, we’re proud to only provide our guests with the best 3% of the chicken, which is the tenderloin and The Filet Mignon of Chicken.
As a brand, we apply The Filet Mignon of Chicken philosophy to everything that we do. Whether it’s the ambiance, food quality or our high level of service, we are elevating the fast-casual experience for each and every guest that walks through our doors.
