WEST COVINA, Calif., USA – Global restaurant chain, Jollibee is bringing its signature brand of joy to Philadelphia and officially establishing the brand’s first location in the state of Pennsylvania. On September 2, 2022, Jollibee will swing open its doors at 7340 Bustleton Avenue and invites all hungry Philadelphians to come experience what sets Jollibee apart from its competitors – extraordinary menu offerings and friendly customer service.
Widely revered for its Chickenjoy bone-in fried chicken, Chicken Sandwiches, and iconic Peach Mango Pies, the brand is bounding towards its ambitious goal to become one of the world’s top-five restaurant chains.
As a testament to its delicious offerings, international food website Eater.com (Vox Media) recently named Jollibee “the best chain fried chicken in America” after its Chickenjoy bested 14 global brands in four rounds of contests.
“What a joy it is to finally be able to say we are open and ready to serve the people of Philadelphia,” said Maribeth Dela Cruz, President, Jollibee North America. “We heard our fans loud and clear and know that this market has been waiting a long time for their very own Jollibee. The city of Philadelphia is ripe with American history, the location of many “firsts” for this country, and now home to the first Jollibee in Pennsylvania. Expanding to new markets across America and being welcomed in new cities is always an honor for our brand and Philadelphia is no exception.”
Jollibee is showing absolutely no signs of slowing down and is opening its 85th restaurant in North America right on the heels of its Times Square flagship location, which opened on August 18, 2022. Earlier this summer, they added two more notable locations to its East Coast footprint: Alexandria, VA – its first in Northern Virginia, which opened on June 26; and Jamaica Queens, NY – its second in the famed New York City borough, which opened on July 21.
The chain has more than 1,500 restaurants across 17 countries and is quickly expanding across North America. Follow Jollibee at @jollibeeus on Facebook, @jollibeeus on Instagram, and @jollibeeusa on TikTok.
