Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Brittany Tolliferreo.

She is a native of Pennsylvania, a serial entrepreneur on a mission to change the restaurant industry, and one of just a few women of color to open and operate a successful franchise. She has done this despite not receiving funding from banks and using her own resources.

Tolliferreo said she first thought about opening Chick-A-Boom a few years ago when she had some friends over to her house and made chicken sandwiches for them. After receiving some positive feedback about the food, Tolliferreo noticed a vacant storefront in her hometown of Folcroft, near the Philadelphia airport and about 15 miles from the city’s downtown area. In 2019, she contacted the building’s realtor and opened the first Chick-A-Boom restaurant…and as they say the rest is history.
