Arby’s to open next week in Brandon

Oct. 5, 2018

Brandon gains another national franchise restaurant Monday when Arby’s opens on Splitrock Boulevard.

It’s the 12th location for American Roast Beef Inc., the franchise group that operates Arby’s in Sioux Falls, eastern South Dakota, Oacoma and Worthington, Minn.

The restaurant, which will be open daily from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., is in a new retail center that’s owned by another company connected to the franchise group. The remaining 5,200 square feet could be used by one tenant or split into two or three spaces, said Joe James, president of American Roast Beef. With the opening of Arby’s and construction work wrapping up, “hopefully that will spark interest,” he said.

The new restaurant features Arby’s latest interior design, with white tile and dark wood on the walls and red accent pieces. The East 10th Street location was updated with that look earlier this year, and the remodeling will roll out to American Roast Beef’s other sites, James said.

The Brandon location has hired 36 full- and part-time employees and could use a few more people. Training will wrap up this weekend with an invite-only soft opening.

Brandon has a handful of national and regional restaurant chains: McDonald’s, Taco John’s, Subway, Pizza Ranch, Papa Murphy’s, Scooter’s Coffee, B&G Milkyway and El Tapatio Mexican Restaurant.
