Shake Shack offers free chicken sandwiches on Sundays in an apparent jab at Chick-fil-A
Shake Shack has launched a promotional campaign offering free Chicken Shack sandwiches every Sunday in April with a minimum purchase of $10. This move by Shake Shack appears to be a strategic decision to capitalize on Chick-fil-A's policy of closing on Sundays. The promotion includes a dig at Chick-fil-A's famous "Eat Mor Chikin" slogan, with Shake Shack using the tagline "Eat more antibiotic-free chicken" in its marketing materials. The campaign emphasizes Shake Shack's commitment to serving antibiotic-free chicken seven days a week, contrasting Chick-fil-A's recent shift away from its "No Antibiotics Ever" policy.
Chick-fil-A's founder, Truett Cathy, established the company's policy of closing on Sundays to allow employees time for rest and worship, aligning with the company's corporate purpose to glorify God. This policy has been a distinctive aspect of Chick-fil-A's brand identity, setting it apart from competitors in the fast-food industry. However, in recent news, Chick-fil-A announced a policy change to use poultry that avoids antibiotics important to human medicine, citing supply chain efficiency and quality concerns. The company said the change was to "maintain supply of the high-quality chicken."
Shake Shack's promotion highlights its antibiotic-free chicken and the availability of its Chicken Shack sandwich seven days a week. The company's marketing materials include a photo of the Chicken Shack sandwich with the caption "Eat more antibiotic-free chicken," and a playful dig at Chick-fil-A's famous slogan. This marketing battle between Shake Shack and Chick-fil-A illustrates how companies can use their unique brand identities and offerings to attract and retain customers in a highly competitive industry.
