Service offers Chick-fil-A menu items to seniors

Cobb County senior citizens will be served Chick-fil-A menu items among various meal options approved Aug. 8 by the Cobb County Board of Commissioners.

The commissioners agreed to a two-year contract with Meals on Wheels Atlanta with an option to renew for an additional year and a six-month pilot program with DC&J Enterprises LLC to operate a Chick-fil-A food and beverage service with an option to renew for an additional six months to complete a 12-month contract.

Doing business as MOWA, Senior Citizen Services of Metropolitan Atlanta Inc. will provide meals to Cobb’s older residents at three Cobb Senior Services Neighborhood Centers and through home deliveries.

As a subcontractor, Chick-fil-A will provide food and beverage services for the Café and Dinner Theater within the Senior Wellness Center at 1150 Powder Springs St., Marietta.

MOWA’s food preparation will take place at the main location of about 30,000 square feet on Commerce Drive in Atlanta. MOWA has renovated and upgraded the commercial kitchen, which increased the freezer, pantry and food storage space.

Two Chick-fil-A restaurants will serve as food preparation sites for the Cobb Senior Services Café at Chick-fil-A of West Cobb on Dallas Highway in Marietta and Chickfil-A of West Marietta Crossing inside the Kroger grocery store on Whitlock Avenue in Marietta.
