Southern restaurant chain Bojangles has inked a partnership with Smart Big Box, Alyath EV and Energy and Environment Design Services to install turnkey electric vehicle charging stations at a wide range of locations, according to a press release.

The charging stations will vary between level two (medium) and level three (high) speed charging efficiency with over 97% uptime, making them ready for drivers when they need it most. There will be a minimum of four charging spots per restaurant.

"Bojangles' focus is on offering a fast, friendly and convenient experience for our guests, and working with Alyath and Smart Big Box allows us to introduce a new convenience that aligns with evolving customer needs," Richard Del Valle, CIO at Bojangles, said in the release. "These top-of-the-line EV chargers will not only improve accessibility for our guests but also help drive an eco-friendlier future."

Christiane Rosul, CEO of Alyath, said the brand is thrilled to partner with Bojangles.

"This initiative not only benefits EV drivers but also positions Bojangles as a leader in the future of quick-service dining. By integrating high-speed charging with great food, we're creating a seamless experience that keeps customers moving," Rosul said in the press release.

The rollout begins late this year and guests can expect the EV charging stations to be accessibly in 2026.

Bojangles operates 800 company owned and franchised restaurants.
