FORT MYERS, Fla. (Oct. 19, 2016) – Rib City has moved into its new corporate headquarters.

Located next to its Daniels Parkway location in South Fort Myers, Rib City corporate offices are now located at 6830-2 Shoppes at Plantation Drive in Fort Myers.

This new office space encompasses 2,500 square feet and includes meeting and training space for Rib City employees.

“We are excited to be able to house all of our corporate functions in one location,” said company President Craig Peden.

According to Peden, marketing, finance and management teams have moved offices to the new location.

Founded in Fort Myers in 1989, Rib City is celebrating 27 years of operation in 2016. The national barbecue chain currently has 13 corporate restaurants in Florida with 10 locations in Southwest Florida and 14 franchise restaurants across the country including Florida, Washington, Colorado, Tennessee, Ohio, Illinois, Missouri and Virginia.

Rib City offers a menu of barbecued meats, specialized sauces and complementary side dishes, such as made-from-scratch baked beans and coleslaw. Rib City achieves authentic backyard barbecue flavor by slowly cooking baby back ribs and chicken over selected hardwoods, including Red Oak, carefully balancing heat and cooking time to seal in the distinctive Rib City BBQ taste. Meats can be topped with one of four secret recipe sauces: brown sugar-based sweet sauce, vinegar-based tangy sauce, Carolina mustard sauce and hot sauce. Additional menu items include fried okra, three-cheese fries, fried shrimp, coconut cream and southern pecan pies, and more. Rib City’s complete menu is available online at www.ribcity.com.

Rib City is listed with the Franchise Registry, a list of franchise systems whose franchisees have the benefits of a streamlined review process for U.S. Small Business Administration financings.
