Locally Owned and Operated
“It is such an honor to be selected as the local Owner-Operator of Seguin’s first Chick-fil-A,” said Garduno-Hernandez. “Since joining the company as a teenager, I’ve always valued how Chick-fil-A isn’t just a restaurant that serves delicious food, but one that shows genuine care and hospitality to each community it serves.”
Garduno-Hernandez began her Chick-fil-A journey at just 16 years old as a Team Member in Atlanta. What began as a first job soon evolved into a lifelong passion for leadership and service. Over the years, Weillen has worked in multiple restaurants across Texas, training shoulder-to-shoulder with Team Members and fellow Operators to learn business operations and understand how Chick-fil-A meaningfully invests in the communities it serves. She credits her time with Chick-fil-A as an experience that helped her build resilience and develop strong leadership foundations. With the opening of Chick-fil-A Seguin, Garduno-Hernandez is excited to bring that same commitment to excellence and care to the community – serving high-quality food with purpose while creating meaningful opportunities for her team to grow, lead and thrive.
