PARAGOULD, Ark. — Paragould residents will soon have a closer option for classic Panda Express fare such as orange chicken and broccoli beef.

According to an announcement Tuesday from Haag Brown Commercial Real Estate and Development, the fast-casual Chinese-American chain plans to open a location at 2303 W. Kingshighway in Paragould.

The site, previously home to Mitchell Funeral Home, has seen significant redevelopment in recent years. It now includes establishments like Starbucks and Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers.

No additional details about the opening date or hiring plans were immediately available.
