Locally Owned and Operated
As full-time, hands-on leaders in their restaurants and communities, Chick-fil-A Owner/Operators proudly reside in the communities in which they serve.
In Boca Raton, Ripple will be responsible for all day-to-day activities of the business, including employing approximately 100 full- and part-time Team Members, serving guests and cultivating relationships with local organizations and businesses.
Born and raised in south Florida, Ripple studied business at Covenant College in Lookout Mountain, Ga. and was a team captain of their varsity soccer team. He brings more than three years of Operator experience to Chick-fil-A Palmetto Park & I-95, having served as Operator at Jordan Creek Town Center in West Des Moines, Iowa since 2019. In addition, he has served as a Team Member at restaurants in Palm Beach County, Fla. and has worked alongside his brother-in-law at Chick-fil-A West Boca to learn about the restaurant and brand. In his free time, he enjoys playing and watching soccer and spending time with his family.
“I am so humbled to have my story come full circle and be back in the same city where my Chick-fil-A journey began,” said Ripple. “I cannot wait to invest in my Team Members the same way my Operators invested in me earlier in my career.”
Caring for the Boca Raton Community
In honor of the opening, Chick-fil-A, Inc. will donate $25,000 to Feeding America on behalf of the new restaurant. These funds will be distributed to partners in the Boca Raton area to aid in the fight against hunger.
In addition, Chick-fil-A Palmetto Park & I-95 is recognizing 100 local heroes making an impact in the Boca Raton area by providing them with free Chick-fil-A meals for a year.
Team Member Investment
Chick-fil-A Operators are committed to hiring, developing and retaining top 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 pay and benefits, hands-on training and mentoring and the chance to apply for scholarships to support their continuing education.
Delicious Food; Outstanding Customer Service
Chick-fil-A is known for serving customers great-tasting food made with high-quality ingredients, 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. Chick-fil-A was one of the first in the industry to eliminate chicken raised with antibiotics to ensure guests have an option for high-quality food on the go.
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. The fresh ingredients are raised and grown by farmers who share the company’s elevated quality and safety standards, so guests feel good about their meal.
