Tampa Bay, FLLocal News

Daggs Sandwich Co. , a new sandwich shop in Largo, Florida, made headlines for its heroic efforts in storm recovery by preparing 500 sandwiches for cleanup crews after Hurricane Helene. Owner Chad Davis, who had just opened his shop on Seminole Boulevard weeks earlier, responded to a request from the community with determination, even without power. He highlighted the appeal of his "chopped sandwiches," which consist of bite-sized pieces of meat, cheese, and veggies, as a unique offering that could set his establishment apart in the local market. Having previously co-owned a steakhouse, Davis is confident that these sandwiches will catch on in the region.

The positive feedback from the Seminole Happenings Facebook group and community members has elevated the shop's profile significantly. Davis emphasized the importance of giving back to the community, stating that being a good partner is crucial for any business. This act of kindness not only supports recovery efforts but also enhances Daggs’ visibility as they seek to establish a loyal customer base. The shop's contact details and operating hours were also shared, inviting further community engagement.
