Idaho is one of the fastest-growing states in the country, and as more and more people move here and the population rises, more and more businesses are moving into the Gem State. Over the last few years, stores that have never called Idaho home have moved in, and many of them have seen success. This trend is not slowing down anytime soon, and depending on who you ask, some love having more shopping and eating options, while others hate the change taking place. One popular food chain has finally decided to make the move and open its first store in Idaho, but when is it happening, where is it happening, and which chain is it?

Raising Cane's Coming to Idaho

It will be a bit of a wait, but in 2025, Idaho will see its first Raising Cane's open in Meridian.
