The beloved shop brings its toasty warm sandwiches, signature shakes and live music to Tomball Marketplace
HOUSTON – Potbelly Sandwich Shop announced today that its newest shop, a franchise location in Tomball, will open to the public on August 4, 2015. The 2,000-square-foot shop is located in Tomball Marketplace at 14215 FM 2920 Road, at the intersection of SH 249 and FM 2920. The widely acclaimed neighborhood hangout is known for its signature sandwiches, hand-dipped milkshakes and live, local music.
Potbelly shops have earned a reputation in communities across the United States for having delicious food, fun décor and fresh tunes. Ralph Baig, the new sandwich shop’s owner, is a Cypress, Texas resident with close community connections and an extensive background in business management and operations.
“I am thrilled that the community can finally enjoy Potbelly here in Tomball,” Baig said. “Having worked for Potbelly for several years, I know my neighbors are going to love the new shop, signature menu items and casual ambiance.”
With previous experience as a general manager for Potbelly, Baig oversees the sandwich shop’s day-to-day operations and the team of managers and staff.
“Baig and his team are an ideal addition to the Potbelly family,” said Rick Fossali, senior director of domestic franchising for Potbelly Sandwich Shop. “Our shops become ingrained in the community, which is reflected in the décor and vibe. Baig has done an excellent job of developing a sandwich shop that will make Tomball residents feel right at home.”
Tomball’s Potbelly Sandwich Shop will be open from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Sunday with delivery and catering options available.
