CHEEKTOWAGA, N.Y. — Mochinut is expanding into the Buffalo area with plans for its first site in Cheektowaga.

According to Eric Recoon, Benderson Development vice president of development and leasing, the franchisee has leased a 1,661-square-foot space at 1526 Walden Ave., in the Walden Plaza near Harlem Road. The same franchisee opened its first site in Rochester earlier this year, with plans for two more sites in development.
