Can a section be added to the article that describes Chick-fil-A products that are being distributed through American supermarkets and other retail grocery services, such as Walmart, Target, Amazon, etc.? If needed, a suggested section header could be "Supermarket items". Suggested text:

In the spring of 2020, Chick-fil-A test-trialed the sale of two of their dipping sauces in 8 and 16 oz. bottles at select supermarkets in the state of Florida with all profits earmarked for a scholarship fund for company's store level employees.[1][2] The trial distribution was successful enough that the distribution area was expanded to the Southeastern United States and eventually nationwide in the following year with almost all of their restaurant dipping sauces available in bottles on supermarket shelves by 2021.[3] Two more sauces were added to supermarket shelves in 2023.[4]
With the success of the sale of dipping sauces in supermarkets, the company decided to trial the sale of the company's line of custom-made salad dressings in the refrigerated section of selected supermarkets in the Cincinnati metropolitan area and in parts of Tennessee in October 2022.[5][6] Since the success of the latest trial, the nationwide distribution of salad dressing is expected to commence in spring 2023.[7]

Since the trial initially started during the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic when indoor restaurant dinning was banned by local health authorities, should this fact be included? -- 96.64.134.61 (talk) 20:11, 18 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Actualcpscm: - It appears that the refrigerated salad dressings are now available at Walmart and other stores since last week, at least according to the NBC Today Show and Branding Eating. (BTW, the salad dressings are kept in the cold food section while the sauces are kept on the ordinary shelves in a different part of each stores.) 108.71.214.235 (talk) 12:39, 19 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, thanks for pointing that out. It's important that we do not give too much weight to this somewhat minor part of the brand in the article, so I wouldn't go into too much detail. Do you have a specific suggestion as to what should be included here? Actualcpscm (talk) 12:55, 20 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Actualcpscm: I would suggest adding something like "nationwide distribution began May 2023" and use the above Today Show and Brand Eating links as citations (don't forget to include the relevant title, authors, publication names, and publication dates when using the {{cite news}} template). Something short and to the point. 108.71.214.235 (talk) 03:26, 25 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The restaurant serves breakfast before transitioning to its lunch and dinner menu

In the US, breakfast is always served before lunch so this shouldn't come as a shock??

Maybe interesting to French or Britons but maybe not something that's important in the lede?

Business model questions

In the section "Business model" there are claims that the company builds each of its restaurants and retains ownership. How can this be true? Many of their locations are inside other businesses. TooManyFingers (talk) 22:34, 2 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
