It won’t be the only Valley location to open this year.

A second spot in Gilbert and ones in Phoenix, Mesa and Scottsdale are also scheduled to open before the end of 2021.

Currently, the closest Eegee’s location to metro Phoenix is in Casa Grande.

The company’s signature frozen treats have also been available at some Valley Blimpie sandwich shops.

Eegee’s has more than 20 locations across Tucson and has been in business since 1971.
