Fortney & Weygandt has nearly four decades of experience in the restaurant industry and has had a longtime relationship with Arby’s Restaurant Group for nearly 15 years. In that time we have built and remodeled many locations for the popular restaurant chain. Arby’s got its start in Boardman, OH in 1964 by Leroy and Forrest Raffel. Today there are more than 3,000 locations across the country.
Federal Way has a new CVS/phamacy location which opened for business earlier this year. This CVS/pharmacy location is a 12,900 square foot new build on an existing gas station site. The project started at the end of June and opened for business in February. Although Seattle had record rainfall and cold weather this winter, we were still able to open on time and under budget! This CVS features a mezzanine level, drive-thru pick up and a mini-clinic.

“Why you?”
It is a common question you receive in any company, no matter what your position. When someone is evaluating your company and your service, they want to know why they should choose you over a competitor.
We have spent the last thirty-seven years showing people why they should choose Fortney & Weygandt, Inc. and then proving to them that they made the right decision by successfully delivering a great project and experience. However, the evaluation process has evolved and involves more people than ever before to choose a general contractor. Therefore, we advise assessing these attributes when beginning the construction process.
Throughout this week we have watched wild fires ravage through the Gatlinburg, Tennessee area reducing homes and businesses to piles of ash. We mourn for the lives lost and feel the grief of those who have lost so much.
Fortney & Weygandt, Inc. is no stranger to such disasters. As a construction general contractor, we have been called upon in the past to help businesses and communities rebuild. When Hurricane Sandy hit the east coast in 2012 leaving devastating damage in its wake, we were there to assist a national pharmacy chain restore the availability of critical healthcare supplies to the residents of Rockaway, New York by constructing a temporary “drug store” which Fortney & Weygandt crews accomplished in just three days. Early this year we stood ready to assist with reconstruction of businesses in Missouri and Illinois due to the destructive flooding in the Midwest. So we understand the need and sense of loss now be experienced by the people of Gatlinburg.
Fortney & Weygandt received the Award of Merit from The Association of Builders & Contractors (ABC) for our renovation of Mabel's BBQ.
