The chicken chain plans to open two more locations in Honolulu and Kapolei later in 2022 and then another three locations in the state "over the next two years," according to the announcement. 

Each new location is expected to bring 80 jobs with the promise of training and mentoring, flexible hours, competitive wages and benefits, "leadership growth opportunities" and the opportunity to apply for education scholarships, the announcement said.
