Tampa-based Little Greek Fresh Grill, which opened its 30th location in December, is forecasting continued growth in 2017, says Nick Vojnovic, Little Greek president.

“We are on target for steady expansion,” says Vojnovic. “We have our eyes set on expanding into the Ohio market during 2017. Florida and Texas will continue to be strong growth markets.”

Little Greek Fresh Grill, a fast-casual Greek restaurant with an American influence, is currently in five states (Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, and Texas). Lakeland, Florida, is the 30th location.

On the 2017 radar for projected openings include Lakewood Ranch, Riverview and Winter Garden, Florida; Boardman, Ohio; and Plano, Texas.

“We are excited to bring the fresh homemade food from Little Greek to new markets,” Vojnovic says. “We are looking to expand and grow.”
