Ike's Love & Sandwiches is bringing the heat to Arizona, with at least three shops opening by year's end in Phoenix, Mesa and Gilbert.
"Phoenix feels like home to me," Founder Ike Shehadeh said in a company press release. "I'm always here for First Friday in Downtown Phoenix and this town knows how to party. I'm going to create some special new sandwiches for each of our new locations to share the love right back at you. I'll be here all week for the Big Game, so make sure to stop by our stores and we'll hang out."
"We're growing quickly throughout the West, but it looks like Phoenix is going to be home to our 100th location! If our Phoenix Ikesters keep showing this much love, we'll keep opening even more locations," Ike's CEO Michael Goldberg said in the release.
Each location will announce its own opening activities with special appearances by Shehadeh, T-shirt giveaways, community fundraisers, free sandwiches and special deals.
With locations in California, Nevada, Arizona, Texas, and Colorado, Ike's Love & Sandwiches is inching closer to 100 locations.
