The Raising Cane’s – A One-Love Chicken Fingers Brand

The company started in 1996 in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, as a business plan that got a low rating, but now it is one of the favorites in the country. The philosophy of Raising Cane is that of “ONE LOVE”; that is, serving quality chicken-finger meals and serving them better than any other.

The menu is also deliberately small with chicken finger combos, Texas toast, Cane sauce, crinkle cut fries, coleslaw, and party-size Tailgates of 100 chicken fingers or less. The name of this restaurant is named after the Labrador retriever of the founder Cane.
