Springfield, Mo. – Andy’s Frozen Custard will soon open a new location in Lutz. 

The frozen custard and treat shop, known for its made fresh hourly frozen custard and baked fresh daily toppings, will open its doors in mid-December at 19081 Wingshooter Way.

“As we continue to expand, our commitment remains the same: to serve up smiles to the communities we are in, in the form of the freshest, most delicious frozen custard,” CEO and owner Andy Kuntz said. 

Andy’s serves up smooth and creamy vanilla and chocolate frozen custard transformed into Concretes, Jackhammers, shakes, malts, sundaes and hands-free products including floats, Freezes and fresh brewed iced teas.

In addition to a menu of frozen custard treats, the new Andy’s will open with a series of limited-time seasonal offerings to celebrate the holiday season: The Santa Brownie Jackhammer, Santa Brownie Sundae, and the Andy Nog Shake.

SPRING HILL – Garyline was scheduled to offer tours and hold a ribbon cutting Dec. 5 of its new location.

The company leased 440,000 square feet within Harrod Properties’ North Pasco Corporate Center, significantly exceeding its initial plans to lease 279,000 square feet. 

Garyline was able to fill over 500 positions in the first six months of operating in Pasco County. The company has invested approximately $16 million to create a modern state-of-the-art manufacturing center.

Garyline has two product lines. Its Promotional Products Division manufactures, prints and assembles plastic products for the promotional industry. Its Packaging Division manufacturers stock rigid/reusable plastic containers primarily for the pharmaceutical, dental and electronics industries.
