Description: I own a fast casual restaurant coming up on its 3rd year in business. Delicious and nutritious options for people on the go. Our customers don't want to sacrifice taste when they are watching their waistlines. We serve real food with bold flavors so you won't miss the fat. Our most popular sandwich is a Turkey avocado with roasted red peppers, mixed greens, and chipotle mayo, most guests add an all natural fruit smoothie to complete the meal. My 3 years in business has given valuable insight into what customers want and how I can expand my brand. I would love to start that expansion now. I funded the first restaurant on my own without investors, I would like the next location to start without such stress. I am passionate about this business and it has grown each year by at least 15%. I started my first business at 24 with 2 partners. Four stores and nine years later I decided to go out on my own. When I left those stores were doing 1.5 million in sales. I know the challenges of a multi-unit operation and look forward to each and every one of them. I have thought about both investors and partners as a way to accomplish my dream for the business and would explore either.
