Checkers will visit Paragould

Paragould, Arkansas – There will soon be an opportunity for Greene County residents who have been dying to try the Checker Burger or the Baconzilla Burger.

The opening of a new Checkers location near the intersection of Highway 49 and Highway 412, next to Hardee’s and McDonald’s, was announced by Haag Brown Commercial Real Estate and Development on Friday, Sept. 30.

“We are excited to bring Checkers to the Paragould market! Paragould has been on our radar for quite some time now, we just needed to find the right spot to strategically place them in the market,” said Zac Qualls, Haag Brown Commercial Executive Broker.

The business announced that the new prototype would shortly be built along Highway 49. (Linwood Drive). A local franchisee from Jonesboro bought the property in July.

“This one was a team effort from the start – from site selection to working closely with the franchisee – and we’re thrilled to have gotten it across the finish line. We are loving the recent growth and activity in Paragould and hope to continue to be a part of it with new projects!”

No information has been released on the opening date or the start of development at the new site.
