QSR Magazine: MilkShake Factory Opens in Cumming, Georgia — Owned by Former NFL Quarterback Rick Strom
QSR Magazine covers MilkShake Factory’s Cumming, GA grand opening on October 11, 2025, at 850 Peachtree Parkway in the South Forsyth area, owned and operated by former Georgia Tech quarterback and Pittsburgh Steelers alum Rick Strom, who has two additional Atlanta-area locations planned. Strom cited his personal connection to Pittsburgh — where MilkShake Factory was founded in 1914 — as part of what made the opening especially meaningful to him. The store is open daily 12 PM to 10 PM with the brand’s full menu of handspun shakes, sundaes, Molten Cups, and housemade chocolates.
