Raising Cane Relocates-Expands Plano, Texas, Operations

08/13/2024
Restaurant chain Raising Cane plans to expand its operations in Plano, Texas. The $20 million project is expected to create 520 jobs.

The investment will include the relocation of the company’s regional support center to a 400,000-square-foot office building at 5320 Legacy Drive. Operations are scheduled to begin in 2026.

“The expansion into our new office represents the great success we’ve achieved over the past 16 years in Plano and is a nod at all the milestones to come as we continue expanding our crew and opening restaurants around the world,” said Raising Cane’s co-CEO and COO AJ Kumaran. “The City of Plano has been a great partner for us throughout the years and we’re looking forward to continuing our partnership and support of the community as we open the doors to our new DRSO next year.”

To support the project the Plano City Council approved a 15-year economic $6.2 million incentive package.

“The City of Plano is excited to collaborate with Raising Cane’s on this significant expansion and investment in our community,” noted Mayor John B. Muns. “For the past 16 years, Raising Cane’s has been a vital part of Plano’s corporate landscape, greatly enhancing our local economy and creating hundreds of high-wage jobs for our citizens. The company’s commitment to community values is evident in their ongoing contributions and support across North Texas. We extend our heartfelt congratulations to Raising Cane’s on their remarkable success and look forward to partnering with them in this exciting next phase of growth in Plano.”
