With 25-plus years working in the restaurant industry, and a focus on supply chain, Keith Anderkin started as Zaxby’s vice president of supply chain and quality assurance in June 2020. Prior to Zaxby’s, Anderkin was a senior vice president at Arby’s Supply Chain Cooperative where he was responsible for over $1.5 billion spend annually across 3,500 restaurants during his 15 years with the brand. A graduate of the University of Kentucky, he began his career as a restaurant auditor at Long John Silver’s where he was quickly exposed to the ins and outs of the restaurant industry. Initially, being on the finance side of the business and then shifting his focus on procurement all those years fit his strengths well and set him up for a long career in supply chain.
