Raising Cane's Chicken Fingers is a fast-casual restaurant chain founded in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, in 1996 by Todd Graves. The restaurant specializes in high-quality chicken finger meals, offering a simple yet popular menu that includes chicken fingers, crinkle-cut fries, coleslaw, Texas toast, and the signature Cane’s Sauce. The chain is known for its commitment to fresh, made-to-order food without using heat lamps. The name “Raising Cane's” comes from Graves' yellow Labrador Retriever, Raising Cane, who became a mascot for the brand. Despite early challenges, including a low grade on his business plan and difficulty securing funding, Graves worked hard as a boilermaker and commercial fisherman to raise the necessary capital to launch his first location near Louisiana State University. Raising Cane's has since expanded significantly and remains one of the fastest-growing restaurant chains in the U.S. The brand’s success is rooted in its focus on quality and its signature "One Love"—serving the best chicken finger meals. Graves continues to lead the company, keeping it connected to its humble origins while supporting over 30,000 community organizations across the U.S.
