COMPANY INFO
WHAT IS HONEYGROW?
We are the original “create-your-own” stir-fry, salad, and honeybar specialists. Everything is fully customizable, thanks to our proprietary touchscreen technology. We feature local and seasonal produce whenever we can. Our Culinary Team ensures every ingredient shines. Though we got our start in Philadelphia in 2012, we are committed to connecting with every community we serve in meaningful ways.
HOW DID HONEYGROW BEGIN?
Our founder, Justin Rosenberg, came up with the idea in 2009 while working full-time and getting his MBA at Temple. He left his day job with the dream of creating a place with colorful, dynamic, customizable options that would fill a gap he discovered by going vegan at the time. He took his business plan to 93 investors before the 94th one gave him a chance. On June 8, 2012, our 16th Street location opened and we currently have over 40 locations from Boston to DC.
WHERE DOES THE NAME “HONEYGROW” COME FROM?
honeygrow is a play on the phrase “honest eating + growing local” — the phrase succinctly illustrates our commitment to providing the freshest food possible. The "growing local" aspect extends into our community activations and partnerships, where we work alongside like-minded businesses to improve each community we call home.
