Garbanzo Mediterranean Fresh, owned by WOWorks brand, partnered with OHM Concession Group LLC, to open a location Monday inside the Salt Lake City Airport.

"We are excited about our partnership with OHM Concession Group and this new opening because we know having Garbanzo Mediterranean Fresh in the region's largest airport is a great way to showcase the brand to travelers and potential operators from North America and beyond," Eric Lavinder, chief development officer for WOWorks, said in a company release. "The brand is a great fit in non-traditional locations, such as airports, because the high-quality, flavorful and customizable menu Garbanzo Mediterranean Fresh serves is on-trend with guests who are seeking nourishing meals while on the go."

Garbanzo Mediterranean Fresh offers travelers a healthy alternative not available in the vast majority of airports, Milan Patel, president of OHM Concessions, said in the release.

"We are thrilled to begin our new relationship with WOWorks, and we look forward to the successful opening of our new Garbanzo Mediterranean Fresh restaurant — the very first in Utah."

The brand also has restaurants in Denver and Atlanta airports.
