Sandy Springs gets first store of the quick service restaurant not owned by a franchisee.
Tropical Smoothie Cafe has plans to open a new location every six days, Dawn Suhail Lewis, human resource manager for the chain told What Now Atlanta in an interview Friday.
The quick service restaurant opened its first corporate location in Sandy Springs Saturday, at 1155 Mount Vernon Highway.
Before its Sandy Springs location, Tropical Smoothie was only being franchised.
With corporate locations slated to open in Lithonia and Decatur in the very near future, do not be surprised if you see one opening up near you.
Since being acquired by Buckhead Investment Partners, the organization has made the strategic decision to open more corporate-owned restaurants that offer patrons an environment surrounded by earth-friendly materials, according to Lewis.
The chain’s Sandy Springs location features reclaimed wooden tables for diners.
