Wingstop has launched Thighstop, an online-only, temporary restaurant selling chicken thighs via DoorDash, to address concerns about a chicken wing shortage. CEO Charlie Morrison explained that thighs offer a similar experience to wings but with more meat, and are a more profitable option due to their lower cost. The company aims to eventually incorporate thighs permanently into the larger Wingstop menu, aligning with a "whole-bird strategy" to increase profitability and utilize more parts of the chicken.

Wingstop has increased its average unit volume (AUV) target to $3 million, two years after achieving its $2 million goal, following a strong second quarter with 28.7% same-store sales growth. The company reported a net income of $27.5 million for the quarter, up from $16.2 million a year ago, and aims for 20% same-store sales growth for fiscal year 2024. This growth is partly attributed to increased brand awareness, the rollout of the MyWingstop digital platform, and a high percentage of digital sales yielding higher average checks.
