Zack Mixon, the CEO of Mixon Foods, inked a 10-unit development agreement to introduce Saladworks to North Carolina.
After a 20-year career as a commercial general contractor, Mixon transitioned into restaurant ownership in 2018 with the acquisition of King Chicken Drive-In, a late 1950’s drive-in restaurant, and Boss Hog’s Chicken & BBQ, an Eastern North Carolina barbecue smokehouse, both located in Washington. While his portfolio has historically focused on fried fare, Mixon said he has a personal interest in healthy eating.
“When I discovered Saladworks as a customer, I was immediately impressed by the brand’s focus on freshness, quality, and cleanliness and knew this was the kind of concept I wanted to invest in,” Mixon said. “My family and I are proud to expand our portfolio with a concept that reflects our values and brings the Saladworks and WoWorks experience to communities across my home state.”…
