Zaxby’s will hold a grand opening of its newest Gainesville location on Monday.
The store, located at 7300 W. Newberry Road off the I-75 Newberry exit, will host a ribbon cutting at 10 a.m.
The new store, owned and operated by Shaun Morris, Boris Ochsenius, Blake Fletcher and Cotton Fletcher of BSBC Go Gators, LLC., will offer a four Chicken Finger Plate special for $8.99 during its opening week while supplies last. The Chicken Finger Plate comes with four Chicken Fingerz™ with Zax Sauce® and is served with Texas Toast, Crinkle Fries, coleslaw and a small drink.
“Having grown up here, Gainesville holds a special place in our hearts. Since we started franchising our own locations, our friends and family have asked us when we would bring Zaxby’s chicken to our own backyard,” said Morris in a press release. “Boris and I started working at Zaxby’s as teenagers, eventually leading to a partnership with Blake and Cotton Fletcher. Together, we look forward to opening our 12th location and bringing our first location to our hometown.”
The 3,097-square-foot restaurant can accommodate up to 50 guests in its dining room and features Zaxby’s classic white farmhouse exterior design. The store will also be equipped with a double drive-thru and digital menu boards inside and outside.
Customers are also able to order online via zaxbys.com as well as through Zaxby’s app available for download on Google Play and the App Store.
The new store also brings nearly 75 new employment opportunities to Gainesville. Interested applicants can learn more at bsbczaxbys.com.
