Denver-based Garbanzo Mediterranean Grill will mark its three-year anniversary Jan. 28.
Founded in 2007, the company currently has 13 Colorado locations, including 10 in Denver, two in Colorado Springs and one in Boulder.
Garbanzo began franchising in October 2009.
"We have reached another milestone in Garbanzo's history, and I attribute that in part to our dedicated staff and loyal guests who have helped make Garbanzo the success it is today," said Alon Mor, Garbanzo founder. "The company has grown tremendously over the past three years, and we are looking forward to continuing the momentum through 2011 and for years to come. I thank our staff and guests for their commitment and join them in celebrating this exciting anniversary."
Garbanzo offers guests a variety of Mediterranean items, as well as a trans-fat-free menu. Guests have the ability to customize every meal with items such as pita, laffa, falafel, shwarma, hummus, seasoned rice, sauces and dressings.
All Garbanzo salads and sauces are prepared on-site daily, and the pita are baked fresh on-site throughout the day in every restaurant. Additionally, several ingredients are bought locally and some are imported directly from the Mediterranean region.
Mor grew up in the Mediterranean region. He started the company with Ken Rosenthal, St. Louis Bread Company/Panera Bread founder.
