Popular Canadian fast-food chain Tim Hortons will open a Columbus location later this year — the company’s first restaurant in southeastern U.S., metro Atlanta businessman and franchisee Abid Khutliwala told the Ledger-Enquirer. The store will be located at 6741 Veterans Parkway, and Khutliwala said that he’ll also build a Popeyes on that plot of land. Khutliwala is bringing the popular coffee and bakery franchise to Columbus because he has existing business ties in the city. He owns four Popeyes restaurants and two Checkers locations in the Columbus area. See more here
