## Story

PALMETTO, Fla. — Two Inspire Brands favorites are joining forces for the first time. On Monday, Aug. 18, Buffalo Wild Wings GO and Jimmy John’s® will open the country’s first co-branded location in Palmetto, bringing hand-sauced wings and made-to-order subs together under one roof.

The location is owned and operated by Quality Foods Restaurant Group, which operates three other Buffalo Wild Wings locations across Florida. Palmetto was a natural choice for the debut, as the city and surrounding Manatee County are among the fastest-growing areas in the country, with a community built around game days, from local high school football to Pirates spring training nearby at LECOM Park.

The combined concept offers two options in a single location. Buffalo Wild Wings GO provides carryout- and delivery-focused service, with wings available in a range of sauces and dry rubs, plus tenders, sandwiches, wraps, burgers and shareable sides.

Jimmy John’s offers fresh-made, fast-delivered sandwiches made with real ingredients, including hand-sliced meats and bread baked fresh in every location every four hours. Guests can add Jimmy Chips or a Jumbo Kosher Dill Jimmy Pickles. The opening event includes a ribbon-cutting.

“Bringing the first-ever Buffalo Wild Wings GO and Jimmy John’s together is something special, and we’re proud to do it right here in Palmetto,” said Kenther Ramos, franchisee with Quality Foods Restaurant Group. “We’re giving this community something no one else has: two crave-worthy menus, one location and no reason to ever choose between them.”
