\ **Gilbert, Arizona (September 30, 2025) —** Kingsbarn Realty Capital ("Company" or "Kingsbarn") is proud to announce its groundbreaking of the first Bojangles® restaurant in Arizona (the "Project"), marking a pivotal milestone in the chicken franchise's strategic expansion into the Western United States. The groundbreaking is the first in a phased plan to bring up to 20 new Bojangles restaurants to the Phoenix metro area. \ The new Bojangles location is situated at 3765 S. Val Vista Drive in Gilbert, a vibrant suburb of Phoenix. Just south of the entrance to AZ-202, the site sits within the highly trafficked Val Vista commercial corridor, known for its strong commuter traffic, robust mix of retail and business activity, and rapidly growing residential base. The surrounding area includes major retail centers, medical facilities, new hotel developments, and several schools, thereby creating ideal conditions for long-term restaurant success. \ "Val Vista captures a large share of morning commuter traffic, and because Bojangles is so well known for its breakfast offerings, positioning the restaurant on the AM side of the street was a key factor in our site selection," said Anthony Hama, President of Kingsbarn Development Opportunities, Kingsbarn's business unit dedicated to capitalizing on ground-up, value-add development projects. "A typical Bojangles employs around 100 people, so this location will bring meaningful job opportunities to the community, along with increased sales tax revenue and economic activity." \ In addition to the Arizona project, Kingsbarn is leading Bojangles' expansion into Las Vegas, where the first restaurant is already open and serving customers at 9250 S. Rainbow Blvd. A second Las Vegas development is scheduled to open next month, with five additional Bojangles restaurants in the area currently under construction. \ Founded in Charlotte, North Carolina, in 1977, Bojangles is renowned for its Southern recipes, craveable comfort food, and hospitality. With approximately 800 restaurants in 15 states, the brand's arrival in Gilbert represents a major milestone in its western expansion.
