Where does CEO Zak Omar see the brand heading in the future?
“Atomic Wings has been a trendsetter for 30 years, and I see us leading the way for 30 more,” he reflected. “We want to grow aggressively beyond the East Coast while we maintain our brand integrity. My goal is to take Atomic Wings across the U.S.A. and share our exciting food and flavors with more guests and wings fans!”
Zak runs Atomic Wings with his brother Ray, and theirs is a uniquely American success story. Their parents came to the U.S. as refugees in 1980 when they fled Afghanistan’s Soviet war. Zak’s first exposure to the food industry was working alongside his father Mo’s popular N.Y.C. food truck, where he served fried chicken to Wall Street workers. After graduating from Hofstra University, Zak himself worked on Wall Street as an IT specialist. While living in the Washington D.C. area, Zak was diagnosed with leukemia and returned to New York for treatment and to be closer to family. He connected with Atomic Wings Founder Adam Lippin, and purchased the company from him in 2017. What appealed to the brothers is that Atomic Wings is a true N.Y.C. company, created in their hometown. Ray Omar — a former ranger in the U.S. Army Special Forces — lives in Maryland and focuses on the company’s Mid-Atlantic operations.
