Longtime Owners of Northport Chick-Fil-A Break Ground on Second Location

The same owners of the long-successful Northport Chick-fil-A broke ground on a second location on that side of the Black Warrior River Thursday.

Ashley Gill, the longtime operator of the Chick-fil-A next to the Northport Walmart Neighborhood Market on McFarland Boulevard and Lurleen Wallace took to social media to share the good news.

According to a Facebook post, the Gill family has broken ground on a new location at 6375 McFarland Boulevard, further north and east on Highway 82.
