Permits have been filed for a Zaxby’s location in Chronicle off of NC-16 Business.
The restaurant is planned for the vacant lot between AutoZone and Advance Auto Parts, across from the Taco Bell. The project is expected to cost approximately 1.5 million dollars, according to the permits.
Efforts to build the Zaxby’s are being led by Sam Mahalingham, an owner of several other Zaxby’s franchises across North Carolina.
“We are looking forward to bringing Zaxby's ‘encore experiences’ to this area of Catawba County,” he said. “[To] enrich lives one person at a time.”
The Zaxby’s was originally planned for the vacant lot at the intersection of NC-150 and NC-16, currently a frequent location of a Goodwill donation truck. The location was changed due to the planned 2029 widening of NC-150, which will pave over the corner lot.
Zaxby’s is a privately-owned Georgia-based fast casual restaurant that specializes in chicken-related dishes and salads. The company has over 970 locations across the United States, most of which are franchised.
Wish we could get a sign off on a decent Gas Station.
