About Cathy family

  • Brothers Dan and Bubba Cathy own and run fast-food chain Chick-fil-A, founded by their father S. Truett Cathy (d. 2014) in 1967 in Atlanta.
  • Dan is chairman and CEO of the chain, which has 2,500 outlets--nearly all franchises--in the U.S.; younger brother Bubba is executive vice president.
  • Chick-fil-A is known for its chicken sandwiches and for being closed on Sundays so employees can attend church; Truett Cathy was a devout Baptist.
  • Dan Cathy grew up doing odd jobs in his father's restaurants, including scraping chewing gum from table bottoms with a butter knife.
  • Dan became CEO of Chick-fil-A in 2012, sparking nationwide protests when he made anti-same sex marriage remarks.
