Locally Owned and Operated
Chick-fil-A Gresham Village is locally owned and operated by Mike Misenhimer, a dedicated business owner and a U.S. Air Force Veteran. After serving in the U.S. Air Force for 24 years, Misenhimer knew he wanted to continue pursuing his passion for developing leaders in his next venture, and he set his sights on becoming a Chick-fil-A franchise Operator. In 2014, he was selected to become the franchise owner of Chick-fil-A Yuma in Yuma, Ariz., where he spent the last seven years. Now, Misenhimer looks forward to continuing his career with Chick-fil-A in Gresham.
“I can’t wait to bring Chick-fil-A to the City of Gresham and to serve my neighbors as a local business owner in the place I call home,” said Misenhimer. “My family and I are excited to welcome everyone into our restaurant, providing them with great food and remarkable hospitality.”
