TL;DR
Happy Joe's is expanding to Florida with a new location in Navarre, featuring its signature pizzas and ice cream treats. The new location is owned by franchisee Jennifer Harding.
“We couldn’t be more excited to bring Happy Joe’s to Florida,” said Tom Sacco, CEO, president and chief happiness officer. “Navarre is the perfect place to introduce our brand of family-friendly fun and delicious food. We can’t wait to see the smiles on our guests’ faces as they experience Happy Joe’s for the first time.”
The newest Happy Joe’s location features fan-favorite menu items, including using real smoked Brisket on our BBQ Brisket pizza, and the iconic Taco Joe pizza, a Midwest favorite topped with ground beef, refried beans, taco sauce, cheese, lettuce and tomatoes. Guests can also enjoy the brand’s beloved Lollapalooza Pizza, alongside a variety of sweet ice cream treats.
“Bringing Happy Joe’s to Florida is a real dream come true,” said Jennifer Harding, the newest Happy Joe’s franchisee. “It took a lot of work, but we are at the end of the tunnel, and I couldn’t be more proud of what we’re bringing to the amazing community of Navarre.”
For the GRAND OPENING EVENT, Happy Joe’s plans to invite friends, family and the media to the new restaurant to help us celebrate.
