Coolgreens is bringing more of its healthy lifestyle eatery to the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Dallas-natives Benny and Leily Farzad recently formed Farzad Food Group, LLC and signed a deal to open at least five new Coolgreens locations. Their first location will open later this fall.
“We were immediately blown away by the Coolgreens experience,” Benny says. “From the food to the culture to the experienced leadership team, everything is first class. We’re excited to see what we can accomplish together.”
Benny and his wife, Leily, both grew up in the Dallas area. Benny co-owns 10 GNC locations across the metroplex, is president of the National Independent Operators Association and has served on GNC’s internal councils for four years.
Benny continues, “Leily and I are committed to living a healthy lifestyle and we look forward to bringing Coolgreens healthy, delicious food to our community.”
Coolgreens opened its first Dallas-Fort Worth restaurant in Southlake earlier this year, and will open in Richardson this fall.
“Benny and Leily are born entrepreneurs with a passion for inspiring and changing lives,” adds Robert Lee, CEO of Coolgreens. “The Dallas community is embracing Coolgreens and our dedication to fresh flavors and healthy lifestyles. We are proud to welcome the Farzads to the Coolgreens family and look forward to watching them grow.”
