WKRN: Christie Cookie Co. opening bakery in Nashville Yards
Nashville’s own cookie brand is bringing back its physical retail presence in the city through a new bakery at Nashville Yards.
The bakery will officially open during CMA Fest weekend, on June 6, with a grand opening celebration from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.
According to the company, the new bakery marks Christie Cookie Co.’s return to a standalone retail storefront in Nashville and a reinvestment in its hometown market.
“We are so excited to return to Music City with a dedicated bakery space of our own,” Coco Kyriopoulos, Director at Rich Products, Christie Cookie Co.’s parent company, said. “Nashville has always been the heart of the Christie Cookie Co. brand since its founding here in 1983. This opening represents an exciting new chapter as we continue investing in our hometown community and creating new ways for locals and visitors alike to experience Christie Cookie Co. With our new bakery opening next month and continued partnerships with Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt, the Tennessee Titans, and the Nashville Predators, we’re proud to further strengthen Christie Cookie Co’s local presence and deepen our roots in Nashville.”
The grand opening celebration will feature a ribbon cutting, live music by local artist JB Strauss, and special appearances from Nashville Predators mascot Gnash, Tennessee Titans cheerleaders and Titans mascot T-Rac. Guests will be able to enjoy free cookies, cookie tin customization with purchase, and giveaways throughout the event, including the chance to win free cookies for a year.
Founded in 1983, the company closed all its storefronts in the city and relocated its headquarters out of Nashville in the last few years.
