City of Turlock Welcomes Chick-fil-A Ahead of August 6th Grand Opening

TURLOCK, CA | July 30 — The City of Turlock is excited to welcome Chick-fil-A to the
community as the company prepares to open its first Stanislaus County location on Thursday,
August 6, 2026, marking another milestone in the City's ongoing economic development efforts.

Located within the new Turlock Marketplace development at the southwest corner of Tuolumne Road and Countryside Drive, Chick-fil-A will become the first business to open within the approximately 30-acre commercial center, representing the beginning of a new destination for shopping, dining, and community gathering in Turlock.

The restaurant will be open Monday through Saturday from 6:30 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. and will be closed on Sundays.

Residents are invited to celebrate the grand opening on Thursday, August 6. As part of Chick-fil-A's opening day festivities, guests wearing a cow costume, cow-print clothing, or other cow themed attire can receive one complimentary entrée or Kid's Meal.

"Our community has been asking for Chick-fil-A for years, and we're excited to finally welcome
them to Turlock, and to Stanislaus County" said Mayor Amy Bublak. "This opening represents
more than a new restaurant. It creates local jobs, expands dining options for our residents and visitors, and marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for Turlock. We're proud to welcome Chick-fil-A to our community and look forward to seeing this development continue to grow."

"This project didn't happen by accident," said Vice Mayor Rebecca Monez, "Mayor Amy Bublak recognized early on that Chick-fil-A was a business our community wanted, and she remained a strong advocate and fought relentlessly for bringing the project to Turlock. She has consistently supported efforts to attract new investment because she understands that economic development
isn't just about growth—it's about creating jobs, strengthening our local economy, and improving the quality of life for the people who call this city home."

"We're proud to celebrate this opening with our community," said Anthony Sims of the
Economic Development Department. "This project reflects years of collaboration between City leadership, the developer, and Chick-fil-A, and we're excited to see that work become a reality. This is just the beginning for the Turlock Marketplace, and we look forward to welcoming additional businesses as the development continues to grow."

As the first business to open within Turlock Marketplace, Chick-fil-A marks the beginning of
what City leaders anticipate will become a vibrant destination for shopping, dining, and
community activity. The City looks forward to welcoming additional businesses as development within the Marketplace continues.
