The global fast-food giant Jollibee has officially opened its doors in Arlington, Texas, marking the brand’s seventh location in the Lone Star State and its 74th in the United States. The grand opening, which took place on Friday, August 16, 2024, at 1700 West Pleasant Ridge Road, has been met with great excitement, further solidifying Jollibee’s growing presence in North America.
The Arlington location, situated in the heart of South Arlington’s bustling retail corridor just off Interstate 20, is strategically positioned to serve the vibrant communities of both Dallas and Fort Worth. Known for its famous Chickenjoy fried chicken, crispy chicken sandwiches, and the iconic Peach Mango Pie, Jollibee continues to attract a diverse and devoted fanbase.
The opening festivities drew large crowds, with customers eager to experience Jollibee’s beloved menu offerings. The new store, which operates daily from 9 a.m. to 11 p.m., provides multiple service options, including dine-in, take-out, and drive-thru, with online ordering to be available in the coming weeks.
To celebrate the opening, Jollibee launched a three-day promotional event, offering exclusive giveaways to the first 50 in-store and 50 drive-thru customers who spent $25 or more. Prizes included a year’s supply of Jollibee Chicken Sandwiches, limited-edition Jollibee t-shirts, and other branded merchandise, adding to the excitement of the grand opening.
“We are thrilled to bring our famous Chickenjoy and other Jollibee favorites to Arlington,” said Maribeth Dela Cruz, Business Group Head of Honeybee Foods Corporation, which operates Jollibee in North America. “Arlington is not only conveniently located between Dallas and Fort Worth, but it is also consistently ranked as one of the most desirable cities in America to live, work, and play. This makes it the perfect place to continue spreading our joy in Texas.”
The new Arlington store joins Jollibee’s other North Texas locations in Dallas, which opened in November 2023, and Plano, which debuted in 2020. As Jollibee continues its aggressive expansion across the continent, the brand remains committed to delivering great-tasting food and joyful experiences to its customers. With upcoming openings in new markets like Portland, OR, and further expansions in New York City and Northern California, Jollibee is poised to continue its upward trajectory.
