BurgerFi coming to Capital Region

BURGERFI TO ARRIVE IN THE CAPITAL REGION
Joint Venture with Owners of Lia Auto Group and Mazzone Hospitality

LATHAM, N.Y. BurgerFi, one of the fastest growing names in fresh, all natural, quality burgers will be landing in the Capital Region. Bill Lia Jr., Michael Lia and Vincent Lia of Lia Auto Group have partnered with Angelo Mazzone of Mazzone Hospitality under the company Burger Ventures, LLC. The first BurgerFi location, situated in a newly constructed plaza owned by the Lia’s at 860 New Loudon Road, Latham, will open this spring.

“This is an exciting time to introduce BurgerFi to the region and provide our customers with a healthier and higher quality option in a modern, sustainable setting,” said Bill Lia Jr.

BurgerFi, short for “Burgerfication”, is headquartered in North Palm Beach, FL, and currently has 58 locations throughout the country including company owned and franchised units.
BurgerFi has made its mark with never frozen, grass fed Angus beef that is free of growth hormones, chemicals and additives. Additionally, each BurgerFi store is built to reduce its carbon footprint on the environment. Tables are made from recycled Coke bottles, chairs consist of compressed wood and large fans utilize 66-percent less electricity. The chain has strict recycling programs in place for all its oil, cardboard, bottles and cans at each restaurant location.

“The menu is simple, food is creatively presented, and the atmosphere is best in class,” said Angelo Mazzone. “BurgerFi is a great modern approach to an old, American classic.”
In addition to an assortment of burgers, BurgerFi serves Kobe beef hot dogs, fresh cut fries with an array of toppings (salt and vinegar, parmesan cheese and herbs, BurgerFi chili, hot Cajun spices), onion rings, homemade frozen custards, craft beer and wine.

A second location at 460 Broadway in downtown Saratoga Springs is in progress with development plans for additional locations throughout the Capital Region.
