As part of its ongoing coronavirus relief efforts, the Arizona Cox Media team, the advertising division of Cox Communications is offering local restaurants free television advertising to assure patrons that they are open for takeout and delivery services and share their new hours of operation.
More than 150 local Arizona restaurants are already taking advantage of this offer, with presence in ads similar to this https://vimeopro.com/ccsphx/restaurant-promo-group-a that is running today.
