WaBa Grill entering Nevada

June 2, 2022

WaBa Grill, a healthy rice bowl chain, is opening restaurants in Nevada thanks to an eight-store deal for various cities throughout Clark County within the next five years.

Multi-unit franchisee Raj Sangha, of Dhindsa Group of Companies, who owns and operates seven other WaBa Grill locations throughout Southern California, now has exclusive territory rights to develop WaBa Grill in Clark County, according to a press release.

"As a WaBa Grill franchisee for the past ten years, I am familiar with the excitement and enthusiasm that ripple through the community when WaBa Grill enters a new market, and I am confident that Clark County residents will enjoy the quality, flavor and value of the healthy options that WaBa Grill offers," Sangha said in the release. "Clark County, especially Las Vegas, attracts people from around the country and the world and I feel especially proud to be able to introduce WaBa Grill to this diverse area."

WaBa Grill was founded on the principle that healthy food made with fresh, quality ingredients should be delicious and accessible to all, and soon our famous rice bowls, plates and salads will be available to Clark County residents, Vivian Mendoza, director of marketing at WaBa Grills, said in the release.

"We are thrilled to be expanding into Nevada with the help of a trusted franchise partner like Raj who has experienced great success with WaBa Grill over the past decade and continues to invest in and grow with the brand."

The nearly 200-unit brand is seeking franchise partners looking to expand their portfolios.
