About Us

ARE YOU TIRED OF TODAY'S UNHEALTHY FAST FOOD CULTURE?
WELL, SO ARE WE, AND WE'RE DOING SOMETHING ABOUT IT.

FRESH - Healthy Café is an international brand, and the global leader in the rapidly growing quick-serve healthy food industry.

At FRESH, we are constantly scouring the globe to source the healthiest ingredients for our menu. Other restaurants may have a flashy name, but FRESH is all about quality and health. Our customers look and feel great and the atmosphere in our restaurants is electric.

Our commitment to living well extends beyond the four walls of our stores. We're committed to the health of the local communities in which we live, as well as the health of our world. That's why we place a major priority on getting involved in the community through school programs, our Healthy Kids Club, sports teams and more. It's also why we serve all our food and drinks in 100% biodegradable cups and other packaging materials made entirely out of corn. We're very proud of this, and our customers tell us they love this aspect of our business.

Today's customer has an insatiable, growing appetite for nutritious, delicious food and drinks, unlike the unhealthy fare offered by other quick-service food franchises. We are perfectly positioned to meet this demand, providing our guests with an extraordinary health experience unlike any they've ever tasted. Whether you're looking for a refreshing mid-afternoon smoothie or a hearty meal, every item on our menu is as good for the body as it is for the taste buds.

At FRESH, our mission is to provide our guests with a fresh and healthy alternative to typically unhealthy fast food, while providing our owners and operators with a profitable business model and a brand they can be proud to be a part of. Our cutting-edge outlets are located in strategic sites with high foot traffic, clear visibility and easy access, and exude a fun, upbeat ambience that attracts loyal customers.

What's Involved

There are two types of franchise opportunities available with FRESH Restaurants:

Unit Franchises: The franchisee pays a one-time franchise fee and opens a single outlet, with options on additional locations within the market and region.

Master Franchises: Area Development: FRESH partners with a local Master Franchiser in each country or region to develop the brand in that market, working with and supporting the Master Franchiser in establishing their own stores and recruiting franchise investors. Master Franchises are available in the U.S. and international markets, providing the developer with exclusive rights in a region.

There are two types of FRESH operating models:

Full Café: 1000–1500 sq ft; specifically designed for busy street front locations; high exposure location with full menu and ample seating

Full Menu Kiosk: 340–450 sq ft; specifically designed for malls and airports; high exposure location with full menu and some seating

Testimonials

"I have been involved with FRESH for three years now. I have three restaurants in my region and two more coming up this year. It turned out to be a very profitable opportunity for my family, and at the same time "spreading health around"!! FRESH certainly is a pioneer in this industry. Our menu is by far the most balanced and healthy that I've seen and people are very appreciative of it. FRESH stays on top of all new and healthy trends and is growing rapidly around the world." - Al Krasel, Master Franchisee North East Ohio.

"My brother and I decided to look for a franchising opportunity that would allow us to showcase our more than 20 years of business experience while not tying our hands to extremely rigid corporate guidelines. After reviewing many franchise opportunities, we found FRESH - Healthy Café. FRESH fit our requirements from day one! We immediately connected with the FRESH Corporate staff and felt as though we were business partners rather than remote franchisees. The menu is fantastic with broad appeal and sales continue to grow!" - Mike and Bob Gourlay, Master Franchisees, Albany New York
