In late October, business partners Benny Santos and Kevin Johnson took over operation of the local Subway restaurant.
To celebrate their new endeavor and to visit with community members and people passing through town, Subway is planning a grand opening Jan. 7-9.

Each day of the grand opening, Subway will be offering sandwich specials.

Santos and Johnson met several years ago when Johnson traveled to Brazil to pick up his son, who had finished his mission for the Church of Latter-day Saints. The two men became friends, and Johnson persuaded Santos to move to Harney County.

“We’re excited to purchase this business,” Santos said. “Kevin likes to stay busy, and I’m happy to be managing here. We have a good crew and are looking forward to meeting people during the grand opening.”
