“The completion of this merger is a milestone for UFood,” said George Naddaff, Chairman and CEO of the Company. “This is an exciting time of growth for us, as we work to provide nutritionally aware consumers with mainstream food that tastes great. As we say here at UFood --feel great…eat smart.”

UFood, a franchisor and operator of fast-casual food service restaurants, is capitalizing on burgeoning consumer demand for quick service restaurants that offer great-tasting food with healthy attributes, such as reduced saturated fat, trans fat, and processed carbohydrates.

With its innovative menu, UFood Grill’s mission and concept is to target mainstream customers and provide great taste and an overall pleasing dining experience.

The fast-casual dining segment is led by companies such as Chipotle Mexican Grill (NYSE: CMG) and Panera Bread Company (Nasdaq: PNRA), and caters to customers who desire the convenience of a fast-food chain and are willing to pay a premium for higher quality, differentiated menu items.

UFood also offers an integrated convenience-style retail store within the restaurants that carry a wide variety of health-oriented nutrition products, such as supplements, vitamins, nutrition bars, energy drinks, and healthy snacks. There are currently nine UFood Grill restaurant locations, seven of which are located in the Boston area, with one location each in Naples, Florida and Sacramento, California. UFood has sold six Master Area Development Agreements and 64 franchise licenses throughout the United States.

UFood is led by George Naddaff who has extensive restaurant and franchising experience, including founding Boston Market and leading the franchising expansion of several other companies such as Sylvan Learning Center and Ranch*1.
