The Restaurant Store Opens Second Florida Location

The Restaurant Store, a division of Pennsylvania-based Clark Associates Inc., is opening a 47,000-square-foot store in Jacksonville, Florida, on Monday, Aug. 11. The store, located at 8332 Cypress Plaza Dr., will provide an extensive selection of products and a customer service experience designed to distinguish itself in the market.

The Restaurant Store has provided foodservice equipment and supplies to restaurants and small businesses for more than 30 years. With store locations in Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, and Florida, and with distribution centers nationwide, the company has optimized its operations to cater to businesses of all sizes.

Jacksonville marks the 13th location for The Restaurant Store and its second in Florida. “We’re excited to continue growing in Florida with a new location in Jacksonville, bringing our wide selection, competitive pricing and hospitality to even more foodservice professionals,” said Hans Weaver, president of The Restaurant Store.

With 14 local hires already in place and more to come, Clark Associates said the store is building a team with extensive industry experience, many of whom are former chefs and foodservice professionals.
