This Day in History: S. Truett Cathy was born on this day in 1921. Samuel Truett Cathy was an American businessman, investor, author, and philanthropist. He founded the fast food restaurant chain Chick-fil-A in 1946.
Chick-fil-A is an American fast food restaurant chain which is the country's largest specializing in chicken sandwiches. Headquartered in College Park, Georgia, Chick-fil-A operates 2,898 restaurants across 48 states, as well as in the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico.
Cathy was a member of the Second Baptist Church in Jonesboro, Georgia, and taught Sunday School there for more than 50 years. He said that the Bible is his guidebook for life. Due to his strong religious beliefs, all of the company's locations, whether company-owned or franchised, are closed on Sundays to allow its employees to attend church and spend time with their families. This policy began when Cathy was working six days a week, multiple shifts. He decided to close on Sundays.
His vision for the company worked.
"The American Customer Satisfaction Index released its list of best fast-food restaurants, and Chick-fil-A took the top title for the seventh straight year. Of the fast-food places, also known as limited-service restaurants, Chick-fil-A came in first place with a score of 83 out of 100. The chain beat out all full-service restaurants included in the survey, including LongHorn Steakhouse, which topped that category with a score of 80."~Source
McDonald's made the bottom of the list.
