## Story

The Memphis-based restaurant chain, specializing in Philly cheese steaks and other grilled and deli subs, has its eye on the area for development.

Bob Ritter, vice president franchise and market development for Lennys, said right now the company is in the process of zeroing in on a location for the first Orlando area restaurant. The closest restaurant, and one of a few in the state is in Bartow.

“We have had a lot of success in Bartow,” Ritter said, and will follow that with a Kissimmee area restaurant in the near future. The company has a specific interest in the area and hopes to open several locations in the area."

The restaurant chain has more than 100 locations nationwide, many of them in Tennessee.
