Greek cuisine café chain Greek from Greece (GFG) Bakery-Café is set to expand its footprint in the US with store openings.
The company has finalised a deal to open 31 new locations across the US, which includes 30 outlets situated in Long Island, New York. GFG Bakery-Café will open another store in Stamford, Connecticut.
These new stores will be based in converted Dairy Barn drive-thru convenience stores and will primarily offer on-to-go and grab-and-go foods. Some outlets will have a dine-in facility.
The expansion will increase the number of GFG Bakery-Café locations to 41. It is being executed in collaboration with Fransmart, a restaurant franchise development company.
Fransmart founder and CEO Dan Rowe said: “The company has invested tens of millions in their production and distribution facilities, making sure every GFG location has its entire supply line of proprietary, made-in-Greece menu items.
“It’s the ideal franchise, high volume, low start-up, few moving parts, easy for a franchisee to operate multi-units, and easy for store-level employees to get it right every day.”
