THEIR STORY
Chopt Creative Salad Company is an American chain of fast casual restaurants with locations in New York, Washington, D.C., Maryland, Connecticut, New Jersey, Virginia, North Carolina, and Tennessee. The company was founded in 2001 and focuses on serving salads, although warm grain bowls and wraps are also available.
HOW WE’VE HELPED
We’ve worked with Chopt since 2016, specifically managing PR strategy and some overarching marketing support to the Southeastern region of their brand. Over time we’ve earned more work including the expansion of our territory to include DMV and this year have garnered more work including some bigger brand messages and work in the NYC market (their home market).
