## Story

Danny DeMersseman opened his newest Zaxby’s location this week in Tallahassee, Florida. The veteran operator now owns 9 of the QSR brand’s restaurants.

“We are very excited to have the opportunity to bring another Zaxby’s to the Tallahassee area and are grateful to our loyal guests and staff for the continued support in making our newest location possible," said DeMersseman, who operates Demerorange, Inc. “We look forward to serving the community our delicious chicken fingers, wings, and salads.”
