With the expansion in Olive Branch, Oxford Foods now operates 12 stores in Mississippi. Zaxby’s total number of locations in the state is 30.

The construction of the Olive Branch restaurant has been undertaken by Dimension Construction.

It will create 55 local jobs.

Zaxby’s operations director Brad Altenhofen said: “Our group is excited to build upon the success of our stores in DeSoto County.

“We are committed to providing best-in-class service to our guests, and a rewarding and meaningful work environment to our employees. Expanding in Olive Branch has been a desire of our organisation because of the wonderful community support, the availability of a great talent pool and an opportunity to serve more guests in this growing market.”

In July 2024, the restaurant chain opened a new venue in Greer, South Carolina.

Earlier in the month, it expanded its menu with the addition of new Chicken Finger Tacos.

The item comes in two flavours, Chipotle Ranch with Pico and Avocado Ranch BLT, and can be enjoyed as part of a meal or added to any order for $3.

Zaxby’s operates 950 outlets across 17 US states.
