WaBa Grill Signs 10-Store Deal to Expand in Arizona<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Healthy Rice Bowl Chain to Open Restaurants in Maricopa and Pima Counties<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"WaBaAnaheim Hills, CA\u00a0 (RestaurantNews.com<\/u><\/a>)\u00a0 WaBa Grill<\/u><\/a>, one of the nation\u2019s leading healthy rice bowl chains, is proud to announce a recently inked multi-unit development deal that will significantly expand its presence in Arizona. Signed by longtime WaBa Grill franchisee Jerry Bajwa of Bajwa Group of Companies, the new Arizona development deal paves the way for 10 WaBa Grill locations to open throughout Maricopa and Pima Counties within the next seven years. Bajwa, who currently owns and operates 19 successful WaBa Grill restaurants in Southern California, plus the brand\u2019s lone Arizona location in Tempe, now has exclusive territory rights to develop the brand throughout the two Arizona counties. The first of the 10 restaurants included in the new agreement will open in Glendale. It will be followed by locations in Gilbert, Surprise and Chandler.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur WaBa Grill location in Tempe has experienced tremendous success, which makes us extremely eager to introduce this healthy rice bowl chain to new markets in the state, including Arizona communities with limitless growth potential that also embrace a health-conscious lifestyle,\u201d said Jerry Bajwa. \u201cThe areas throughout Maricopa and Pima Counties that soon will be home to WaBa Grill restaurants can look forward to a nutritious menu and the convenience of healthy meals served at super speed \u2013 and we cannot wait to open our first location in Glendale later this year.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bold flavors and healthy food are the main attraction at WaBa Grill, which offers better-for-you options packed with fire-grilled proteins, healthy grains and fresh vegetables. Protein choices are plentiful and include fresh, never frozen chicken, marinated ribeye steak, wild-caught salmon, jumbo shrimp and organic tofu, which guests may add to any bowl, plate or salad and then customize with a variety of flavorful sauces, including the fan favorite WaBa sauce. WaBa\u2019s Plantspired Steak, a 100% plant-based protein alternative that has been well received by vegans and non-vegans alike, was introduced in 2021 and continues to be a guest favorite.<\/p>\n

\u201cHaving developed successful WaBa Grill restaurants alongside Jerry Bajwa for many years, we are immensely proud of his brand custodianship and remain confident that Jerry and his hardworking team will continue representing WaBa Grill as he always has during this period of significant expansion in Arizona,\u201d said Steven Wang, Director of Real Estate, Development & Construction at WaBa Grill. \u201cDevelopment throughout Arizona has been booming in the last decade, but the Grand Canyon State still does not have the significant presence of a healthy rice bowl brand like WaBa Grill, which is why we are so excited to expand our access to Arizona locals, travelers and anyone seeking a healthy and convenient meal.\u201d<\/p>\n

The nearly 200-unit brand is primed to continue expansion, having identified ideal markets throughout the West and is seeking new franchise partners looking to expand their portfolios with an established healthy fast casual brand on the rise.
