ORLAND PARK, IL — Just a few weeks ago, Orland Park had nearly 200 restaurants open in the village but not one Arby's among them. That's no longer the case as the popular fast-food chain now has a franchise open at 15760 S. Harlem Ave.

Owner Faisal Merchant said the Arby's opened on Feb. 25. They open at 10 a.m. and close at midnight every day of the week.

Merchant has been in the restaurant business for 16 years. He's the owner of 23 Dunkin'Donuts franchises, five Baskin Robbins, four Wingstops and now two Arby's. His Arby's location in Lockport opened last year.
