Coolgreens, the healthy lifestyle eatery headquartered in Oklahoma City, has announced plans to break into the Florida market, starting with Delray Beach and Coral Springs. According to Restaurant News, the company is capitalizing off of a very successful Q2 and taking advantage of its momentum by opening three locations in Southern Florida.
“We have always felt that Florida would be a fantastic market for us,” CEO Robert Lee told Restaurant News. “The state’s outdoor lifestyle and interest in eating healthy aligns perfectly with our brand. Our scratch-made salads, wraps, sandwiches and grain bowls offer high-quality, nutritious options that can’t be found at many places in the South Florida area. Given Coolgreens’ continued success in revenue and profit, we felt now was the right time to enter the new market.”
Coolgreens Delray Beach will open at 1841 S. Federal Highway, Suite 400 in a 1,500 square-foot space this fall, while Coolgreens Coral Springs is slated to open in late summer of next year. The company’s website shows a Miami store is on the books as well, although an exact location has not been announced.
“We’re starting our growth venture with two corporate locations in South Florida,” Lee added. “We’re actively seeking additional locations and at the same time looking for franchisees to help us expand aggressively throughout the state.”
Coolgreens was founded in 2009 and currently has nine corporate and franchised fast-casual locations throughout Texas, Nebraska, and Oklahoma. Once that Delray location opens, you can expect to dig into the eatery’s signature salads like the Harvest, Chipotle Ranch, and Southwest. Gluten free, vegan, and vegetarian options are available as well.
