Georgia-based quick-service restaurant Zaxby’s has announced that it has signed a new franchise agreement with the Snyder-Mitchell family, which will lead to three new Zaxby’s locations along Maryland’s Eastern Shore.
Zaxbys is famous for its craveable Chicken Fingerz™, wings and signature sauces.
The first Zaxby’s in Maryland is set to open in Cambridge in late 2025, with additional locations in Easton and West Ocean City/Berlin to follow.
The new Franchise co-owners are Curtis and Teresa Snyder, along with Teresa’s father, Thomas Mitchell.
Curtis Snyder a local attorney and real estate developer, is enthusiastic about pioneering Zaxbys in a new market.
We’ve always wanted to bring something special to the Eastern Shore, and Zaxbys is the perfect fit. The quality of the product, combined with the brand’s growth strategy, convinced us this was the right move. Maryland residents, along with travelers from Baltimore and D.C. heading to the shore, are going to love it,
Curtis Snyder
The family’s real estate development company, which focuses on projects along the Eastern Shore, decided to diversify into the quick-service restaurant (QSR) sector after enjoying Zaxby’s during a family trip to Fort Mill, South Carolina. They were drawn to the brand’s strong presence in the growing boneless chicken market.
We are thrilled to expand Zaxbys into Maryland with Curtis, Teresa, and Thomas leading the charge. Their commitment to their community and dedication to delivering a high-quality experience for customers perfectly aligns with Zaxbys values. We look forward to seeing them grow the brand on the Eastern Shore.
Mike Mettler, Zaxbys Chief Development Officer
Where will they be located?
The first Maryland Zaxbys location will be built near Walmart in Cambridge, with a modern farmhouse design. Another location is planned near a new hospital development in Easton, and the third will be located in the West Ocean City/Berlin area. The Snyder-Mitchell family envisions these locations serving both local residents and the many travelers who pass through on Route 50.
In the long term, the family aims to expand further into Maryland, with potential plans for future locations in Salisbury.
