The Exchange’s arsenal of dining options is expanding after the grand opening of Potbelly on Fort Liberty—the first at any Exchange.

Fort Liberty Garrison Commander Col. John Wilcox joined Exchange General Manager Thomas “TK” Kuttamperoor in a ribbon-cutting April 30. Guests were treated to samples and giveaways, including a drawing where one shopper won a year’s worth of free Potbelly.

Two more Potbelly restaurants at Fort Liberty are planned for 2024: One at the Honeycutt Express and one on South Post.

Aligned with the Exchange’s BE FIT 360 program’s focus on better-for-you dining options, Potbelly offers sandwiches and salads, including Avo Turkey, Mediterranean and Veggie Melt sandwiches and Powerhouse and Farmhouse salads.

“The Fort Liberty Exchange is honored to be the first Potbelly location on any military installation,” Kuttamperoor said. “Name-brand restaurants are vital to feeling at home, and the Exchange remains committed to improving the dining experience for our community.”

Diners on the go can also order online through the Potbelly mobile app or a third-party delivery service. Military diners can also request catering.

Anyone, including civilians, can dine at an Exchange restaurant. 100% of Exchange earnings are reinvested into the community through Quality-of-Life programs and capital improvements designed to help make military communities stronger.
