Megan Thee Stallion opens her first Popeyes franchise in Miami

Megan Thee Stallion has reached a notable milestone in her business career by opening her first Popeyes franchise, expanding a partnership with the fast food brand that began in 2021.

The rapper and entrepreneur first collaborated with Popeyes when the brand launched its popular spicy chicken sandwich alongside her signature “Hottie Sauce”. The partnership marked her entry into the fast food industry and laid the foundation for a broader business venture.

Her involvement has now progressed into franchise ownership, with the opening of a Popeyes location in South Beach, Miami. The restaurant officially opened on December 31, 2025, with Megan attending the grand opening and personally serving the first customers.

She also surprised staff members during the opening celebrations, marking the occasion by taking an active role in the launch. Megan later shared the moment with her followers on Instagram, encouraging fans in the area to visit the new outlet.

Hottiessss I’m officially a franchise owner.”

The rapper also revealed that she would remain closely involved with the restaurant’s operations, adding, “Come to South Beach Miami and dine with us,” and confirming that she would be present alongside the management team.

Megan holds a multi-unit development deal with Popeyes, meaning additional locations are planned as part of her agreement with the brand. Future franchises are expected to feature her personal menu items, including the Hottie Chicken Sandwich and Hottie Chicken Nuggets.

The move further establishes Megan Thee Stallion’s growing profile as a businesswoman, building on her success beyond music and into long-term commercial ventures.
