Noodles & Company has announced the national launch of the Coca-Cola Freestyle beverage dispenser.
"Over the years, we've received feedback from our guests asking that we offer more low-calorie, caffeine-free, and non-carbonated drink options," said Kevin Reddy, president and CEO, Noodles & Company. "Coca-Cola Freestyle is the right solution for us to solve our guests' needs."
The decision to launch Coca-Cola Freestyle system-wide comes after Noodles & Company initially tested the fountain dispensers in restaurants in Utah, Pittsburgh and Colorado.
"We were interested to learn how our guests would react to the selection that Coca-Cola Freestyle provides. The results indicate that our guests really enjoy the ease and variety that it offers," Reddy said.
