AES Restaurant Group Becomes Arby's Second Largest Franchisee

5/7/2025

 

Exciting News from the AES Restaurant Group! 


We are excited to announce that AES has added 40 new Arby's locations to the AES family. On May 6th, we welcomed 28 locations in Florida, 10 restaurants in North Carolina and 2 in Virginia into the AES Family. With this acquisition, AES becomes the second largest franchisee in the Arby's System, marking a total of 229 restaurants in 17 states. 

"This accomplishment would not have been possible without the hard work, dedication and results of our team, said John Wade, owner of AES Restaurant Group.  "We are so thankful for the continued commitment to excellence that allows AES to grow."

The locations will operate under the leadership of Michelle Carter, Vice President of Operations. We are excited to add all of the new employees to our team.

Hopefully the 10 stores in NC, will be bettered managed at the district level. I already see AES is smart to have not bought the two worst stores that mosaic owned in raleigh and cary. Hopefully with new ownership the management and customer service will be better

Good afternoon …..Arby’s on 441 Lady Lake Florida has always been our place to stop…and have a bite to eat for lunch…a place where many go to enjoy the food and employer’s ..they have always been so nice…Sadly…for the very first time…it was much different, there was a line around the building…we waited inside for at least twenty minutes for our lunch, it was not hot nor warm.Never happened before….People standing in line, and it was obvious it wasn’t the same …others commented to, The staff was horrible. Not the same….Please what happened….I’ve never seen this before…..Bad Food and terrible service…First time ever… Thank you in advance….Please…don’t let Arby’s go down hill….This is something you need to know, Thank you in advance for reading my post..I have never complained on line like this…..but! They need help…..what ever changed….There’s a big noticeable difference…By many others too.
