About the brand
Goobne Chicken is a South Korean chicken franchise operated by GN Food, launched in 2005 around oven-roasted rather than deep-fried chicken. The brand runs roughly 1,100 franchised stores in Korea and, as of mid-2024, 45 outlets across 10 overseas markets including Hong Kong, Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, the Philippines, Japan, Australia, and the United States. International expansion proceeds mainly through master franchise agreements, including a 2023 US deal with Texas-based Dream Associates. Overseas outlet sales reached KRW 30.5 billion in 2023.
