Later this summer, Loup City residents and visitors will be enjoying delicious fresh sandwiches from a franchise restaurant we all know and love…Subway. It will feature drive-up window service and Goodrich Dairy Ice Cream. The former Brickyard restaurant is being remodeled and the new steakhouse has plans to be open by the end of August. The former Colony Inn Motel and Liquor Store will also be completely updated with new furniture, beds, T.V.s, paint, décor and wireless high speed internet available in the whole establishment.
This project was possible through research facilitated by the Loup City Investment Group, a new corporation that formed in summer 2008. Their decision was based on several years of positive comments received from community surveys, town hall listening sessions, and business retention interviews conducted by the Sherman County Economic Development Board. Interested Investment Group members partnered with other investors to form the Loup City Futures Corporation last Fall. The Subway Franchise was purchased last winter and construction began this spring. The combination of great community efforts has resulted in one new business and community dining option, three upgraded business, and two new corporations with the potential to create more businesses. A Subway Assistant Manager has already been hired and they will be accepting applications for Shift Managers and Sandwich Artists this summer. Interested persons should call 308-750-6622 to complete an application.
