Earlier this year, Parker's Kitchen hosted a special ribbon cutting and 50th anniversary kick-off event to celebrate the grand opening of the company's new store in Port Wentworth, Georgia. The company went from 96 stores in 2025 to a count of 108 for 2026, officials said.
The Parker Cos., which started as a one-store operation in 1976 in Midway, Georgia, draws consumers into its Parker's Kitchen stores with freshly made items like southern fried chicken tenders, made-from-scratch macaroni and cheese, a breakfast bar, daily specials and double-breaded chicken nuggets as a grab-and-go item.
In 2023, it launched Chewy's Drink Club, offering Southern Sweet Tea, Parker's Fancy Lemonade and fountain drinks. Parker's has EV chargers at several Georgia and South Carolina locations and plans to include EV capability in new constructions. Parker's has continued its commitment to supporting the communities it serves. Its charitable focus is supporting education, expanding access to healthcare, eradicating childhood hunger and helping injured local veterans.
For benchmarking purposes, store counts are as of Jan. 1, 2026.
