First five locations opening in the Florida panhandle starting this month

Krispy Krunchy Chicken^®, one of the fastest growing hot food concepts in the convenience store business, recently entered an agreement with EG America, a leading convenience, coffee and fuel retailer in the United States, to open locations under several of its banners, primarily Cumberland Farms. The first five locations will launch inside Cumberland Farms stores across the Florida panhandle, beginning with the Santa Rosa Beach store at 3871 E County Highway 30A, which will open on September 22, 2025.

“Our launch with Cumberland Farms in Florida is an important step for us, as it strengthens our presence in a key market and aligns Krispy Krunchy with one of the most recognized convenience store brands in the country,” said Jim Norberg, CEO of Krispy Krunchy Chicken. “We’re building tremendous momentum, now serving all 48 contiguous states, and this collaboration highlights the strength of our premium offerings and the kind of partnerships they continue to attract.”

In addition to Santa Rosa Beach, Krispy Krunchy plans to open locations with Cumberland Farms in Destin, Gulf Breeze, Navarre and Panama City, with more to be announced later this year. All Florida panhandle sites are expected to open by the end of 2025, with further growth on the horizon in the Sunshine State and beyond.

“We’re excited to bring Krispy Krunchy Chicken and their highly craveable menu items to our North Florida locations,” said Brian Ferguson, Chief Marketing Officer, EG America. “Cumberland Farms is a daily destination for millions thanks to our exceptional coffee, fast and friendly service and unmatched convenience. Partnering with Krispy Krunchy allows us to elevate the food experience even further by delivering the quality and flavor our customers want, right when they need it.”
