Turnkey Services As the program architect for Bojangles, we maintain the Bojangles restaurant prototypes and can quickly adapt this standard to your site in the most efficient manner.
Streamlined Workflows We produce comprehensive drawings for Bojangles in a cost-efficient manner having developed the architecture, MEP, and structural standards for the ground-up prototypes offered. We develop and maintain all the details required for Bojangles restaurants and can deliver the latest and greatest standards included in your construction documents.
Design Options We can adapt the Bojangles design to your site requirements regardless of if you have a ground-up build, a takeover conversion, or tenant infill locations. Our team has created multiple corporate-approved prototype designs that can be adapted to your site based on lot size, how much kitchen and dining room square footage you prefer, and include a new DTO (drive-through only) design, as well.

Furthermore, the Bojangles team has hands-on experience with Industrialized Construction for restaurants and retail and can help guide you through the design and construction process if you determine that Industrialized Construction is right for you. The Bojangles prototypes available to you can be traditionally built (stick built) or built via modular or panelized construction processes based on square footage.
Franchising Experience
Slim Chickens Prototype Development | Conversion Layout Design Our partnership with Slim Chickens has evolved over the years from prototype development and site adapt work. In recent years, we partnered with a local franchisee on four local restaurants that have unique kitchen designs and are some of the top grossing locations Slim Chickens maintains. This strong, successful partnership has also allowed us to take a larger part in prototype development and management for Slim Chickens corporate, as well. Being near Slim Chickens headquarters in Fayetteville, AR also allows our team even more inperson opportunities to meet with new franchisees and corporate clients prior to construction.
Black Rock Coffee Prototype Design + Development | Roll Out HFA has worked alongside Black Rock Coffee Design and Construction Teams since 2019, collaborating together to create a prototype that is cost and timeline conscious while maintaining the consistency of their community-driven brand experience. Our team provides site analysis +evaluation, restaurant design, kitchen layout, exterior design visualizations required for approval by local jurisdictions, construction documents, permitting +entitlements, and construction administration to franchisees of Black Rock Coffee.
Freddy’s Protoype Design + Development | Retrofit | New Stores Five years ago, our team was approached by a local developer that was also a Freddy’s franchisee, to design a multi-tenant development with a Freddy’s restaurant anchoring the development as the end cap, flanked by two other tenants. Our team took the Freddy’s prototype and provided the client with high-quality construction documents that incorporated their individual design style, ultimately avoiding any potential RFIs that might complicate the construction process. We also built a client-specific REVIT prototype for this client, as well.
Tacos 4 Life Prototype Design + Development | Roll Out From the very beginning of our conversations with Tacos 4 Life, rolling out locations quickly throughout the region was always top-of-mind. Our team partnered with Tacos 4 Life to help make this dream a reality by supporting them through the creation of their first location in Little Rock, AR thanks to value engineering support on the current building design and prototype they were working with. By providing them cost-effective solutions that kept the look and feel they were looking for, they were able to expand at a faster rate, which allowed them to deliver on the motto of giving back meals to those less fortunate for every taco or bowl sold.
Sonic Prototype Design + Development | Retrofit | New Stores Throughout our work with Sonic, we’ve worked on corporate and franchisee restaurant locations, both new ground-up and retro-fitted locations, and each time our team has been careful to keep designs consistent with the prototype, while still incorporating the needs and creativity that franchisees would like to see in their locations. One such Sonic location melded the prototype with new and interesting developments, like a dog park placed front and center at the restaurant, allowing customers to eat on the patio with their families, four-legged family members included.
