RETAIL
10 Economic Development Division August 21, 2014
Economic Development Retail staff located three new companies that included two restaurants and one ice-skating and entertainment center to the City of Chandler.
Specific Q4 Retail Activities:
1. Jimmy John’s In 1983, Jimmy John Liautaud checked out a handful of cookbooks from his local library, and perfected his award-winning bread. After creating four sandwiches, Jimmy tested them on friends and family. Without hesitation, he opened the very first Jimmy John's with a whopping $200 a month in rent and used equipment consisting of a refrigerator, a chest freezer, an oven and a meat slicer. College kids loved the low price, great food, and the fact that they delivered. To-date, with over 1,900 stores open, Jimmy John’s signature bread is baked in-house every day and the meat and veggies are sliced in-house to be served fresh every day. Jimmy John’s is proud to serve real turkey and roast beef without additives or vegetable-based fillers, because Jimmy John's wants only the best.
2. Café Rio
In 1997, Steve and Patricia Stanley used inspired recipes and traditional cooking from Northern Mexico's Rio Grande, Southern Texas, and New Mexico, to open the first Café Rio in a small town call St. George in southern Utah. Due to the huge success of the first Café Rio, the Stanley’s opened six additional locations in Utah.

In 2004, Bob Nilsen and his team purchased the six restaurants that the Stanley’s created and pushed them outside Utah. The six Café Rio restaurants grew to 73 locations in Arizona, California, Montana, Wyoming, Nevada, Colorado, Idaho, Maryland, and Virginia.
3. Ice Den - Reopening The Ice Den is a state-of-the-art ice-skating and entertainment center. The facility will fulfill the diverse sports and entertainment needs for many Arizona families and businesses.
Chandler’s Ice Den renovation and revitalization project began in April 2014. The renovation will allow the venue to be utilized in the summer months for indoor soccer, lacrosse, day camps, and other activities. In addition, other amenities that will be added include a new retail shop for hockey and figure skaters, and a fully redesigned café and snack food area. The Chandler location will offer “learn to skate” programs at the facility. All renovation should conclude by the end of the summer 2014.
In this quarter, staff assisted new ownership of the Ice Den in the nearly completed renovation of the space. Jimmy John’s represents the reuse of a former Quizno’s location. Café Rio is taking over the former Tonic Lounge space at Chandler Gateway across from Chandler Fashion Center.

1. The Chop Shop The Chop Shop’s personal love of fresh food and the acceptance of today’s on-the-go busy life styles, combined with the desire to provide people the familiarity of family recipes with a surprising twist of ingredients, is what keeps Chop Shop motivated to serve their clientele at their newest location in Downtown Chandler.
