Grabbagreen inked a new franchise agreement with franchisee Lauren Ramsey of Going for Green Inc. Ramsey will open three Grabbagreen locations in the Atlanta area over the next two years, with the first store aiming to be open in the first quarter of 2017.

Grabbagreen currently has three restaurants operating in Arizona. After launching franchising in 2015, Grabbagreen has since executed 62 franchise agreements and more than 180 development agreements. At least 15 locations are schedule to open across the US this year in Florida, Texas, California, North Carolina, Minnesota, Colorado, Idaho, New Jersey, Tennessee, and Arizona.

"Our recent agreements give us the opportunity to show more of the country what Grabbagreen is all about: healthy food, fast, that tastes great," says Grabbagreen CEO and cofounder, Keely Newman. "Lauren has the passion and dedication to be part of this journey, and we are excited to fulfill Atlanta's need for clean food, great juice, and smoothies."
