TL;DR
Potbelly is opening its second Southeast Florida location in Plantation on October 27. The new shop is owned and operated by PB Florida Holdings, LLC, and is part of the brand's expansion across Broward County.
Potbelly announced today the Oct. 27 opening of a new Southeast Florida location. The Plantation shop becomes the brand’s second in the region, joining another that opened this past April in Davie.
The brand proudly arrives to Plantation Pointe, a 77-acre mixed-use development near University Drive and Sunrise Boulevard. Surrounded by major employers, nearby neighborhoods and a growing mix of retail and dining, the shop is a convenient destination for local families, professionals and businesses to enjoy signature oven-toasted sandwiches and wraps, fresh salads, hand-dipped shakes and other craveable menu favorites.
The new shop is owned and operated by PB Florida Holdings, LLC, and is led by Rami Boaziz, CEO of Stellar Hospitality, the parent company of PB Florida Holdings. A former Chicago resident and longtime Potbelly fan, Boaziz is leading the brand’s expansion across Broward County, with Plantation marking his second shop.
It joins more than 15 Potbelly locations across Florida, with over 50 additional shops under development agreements, as the brand continues to expand its statewide footprint.
“Plantation Pointe is a great fit for Potbelly, bringing together local families, professionals and businesses in a community we’re looking forward to serving,” said Karen Tapia, District Manager. “Our team is ready to open the doors and welcome our new neighbors with the warm, toasty sandwiches, friendly service and good vibes Potbelly is known for.”
To mark the opening, Potbelly will host a Grand Opening celebration Friday, Nov. 6, at 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. The first 50 guests in line at the Grand Opening will receive Free Potbelly for a Year. Guests can also enjoy a ribbon cutting and play Potbelly Perks Plinko for chances to win exclusive merchandise, free food and other prizes.
The Plantation Pointe shop will offer convenient options for lunch, dinner and everything in between. Regular operating hours are 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily. Guests can dine in or order ahead for pickup through Potbelly.com or the Potbelly App. Catering and third-party delivery are also available.
For exclusive offers and rewards, Potbelly invites guests to join the Potbelly Perks program, where members can unlock free sandwiches, cookies and special offers throughout the year.
