Barnett Management Co. said it plans to hire about 500 restaurant employees in Arizona over the next few months as the family-owned, Phoenix-based business ramps up to open three new Slim Chickens restaurants.

The first location will open about mid-June near 35th Avenue and Happy Valley Road in Glendale, followed by another Glendale restaurant opening during the summer near Loop 101 and Northern Avenue. A third restaurant will open later this year in Yuma at Fourth Avenue and 16th Street. Each location will feature about 4,200 square feet of restaurant space including patios, seating for about 90 customers, and will employ about 100 people.
