Muscle Maker Grill Awarded Contract for Two Locations on Navy Base
October 21 2020 - 9:15AM
Muscle Maker, Inc. (Nasdaq:
GRIL) the parent
company of Muscle Maker Grill, Healthy Joe’s & MMG Burger Bar,
a fast-casual concept known for serving “healthier for you” meals,
today announced that it has reached an agreement with the Navy
Exchange Service Command (NEXCOM) to open two Healthy Joe’s
locations at two commands on Naval Station Newport (NAVSTA Newport)
in Rhode Island. The two commands will be the Surface Warfare
Officers School and the Naval Health Clinic. Menu offerings include
oven toasted subs, toasted bowls, hot topped salads, and Joe’s
Faves – a lineup of signature menu items that include: a grass fed
sirloin steak and grilled halloumi cheese toast, the impossibly
sloppy made with Impossible™ plant based protein and avocado toast
made with Joe’s handcrafted avocado smash, queso fresco and
pepitas.
NAVSTA Newport is home to over 50 U.S. Navy,
U.S. Marine Corps, U.S. Coast Guard, National Oceanographic and
Atmospheric Administration and U.S. Army Reserve commands and
activities. NAVSTA Newport is the Navy’s premier site for training
officers, officer candidates, senior enlisted personnel and
midshipman candidates, as well as testing and evaluating advanced
undersea warfare and development systems. NAVSTA Newport is also
the home of the Navy’s most prestigious educational institution,
the U.S. Naval War College.
The first Healthy Joe’s location will be at the
Surface Warfare Officers School. The Surface Warfare Officers
School is coined as the “Center for Excellence” where Surface
Warfare officers and senior enlisted leaders sharpen their
leadership, management and professional skills throughout their
career. The second Healthy Joe’s location on NAVSTA will be at the
Naval Health Clinic New England (NHCNE). The NHCNE is a
comprehensive health care facility at the south end of the naval
complex. It provides a full range of outpatient services for naval
shore activities and fleet units of the operating forces, family
members of armed services personnel and other authorized
beneficiaries. Both locations will have both forward facing
customer as well as delivery capabilities.
Michael Roper, CEO of Muscle Maker Grill,
commented, “This is a tremendous opportunity for our company. We
have been awarded the opportunity to serve some of the Navy’s top
personnel while expanding our reach into our third military branch.
We look forward to opening these two new locations and expanding
our military portfolio. We’ll continue to seek out non-traditional
military opportunities as they make sense for our growth
plans.”
Muscle Maker recently announced the submission
of Major General (retired) Malcolm Frost to the board of directors
which will be voted on by the company shareholders for approval at
the upcoming annual shareholder meeting on October 27, 2020.
Providing healthier alternatives and expanding into all military
branch locations is a company goal and the potential addition of
Major General (retired) Malcom Frost to the Board of Directors will
bring a unique skillset and experience to the Muscle Maker, Inc.
brands. The Company will begin the planning and construction
process in Q4 with an anticipated opening in Q1/Q2 2021.
