Business model questions

In the section "Business model" there are claims that the company builds each of its restaurants and retains ownership. How can this be true? Many of their locations are inside other businesses. TooManyFingers (talk) 22:34, 2 September 2023 (UTC)

Number of locations has a typo. According to the source, it should be 2,973. The article currently lists it as 2,9273 (extra 2 is the typo) 2603:8080:1E40:2F3:6166:91F1:A237:C4D0 (talk) 18:19, 9 September 2023 (UTC)

The first paragraph of the History section needs a citation for what I believe to be the demolishing of the first Chick-Fil-A. This is the official brand site describing both the restaurant and it's closure for a citation. https://www.chick-fil-a.com/about/s-truett-cathy-brand-restaurants/dwarf-grill TinkerJoy (talk) 18:52, 9 May 2024 (UTC)

Secondary sources are preferred over primary sources from the restaurant itself. WP:PSTS I am not able to make an edit on this page either, but here are a couple of secondary sources talking about this, it was actually remolded, not just demolished as the paragraph currently reads.
announcing demolition and plans to rebuild.
The reopening.
