By GlobalData“We now have approval for 195 locations compared to 100 military locations at the beginning of 2019 and are very well positioned for additional expansion for many years to come.”
The smoothie chain is also planning to continue international and domestic expansion beyond the current 195 dining facilities.
Furthermore, the company noted there is potential for expansion opportunities at each military base location.
It is currently in the process of negotiating with all US military facilities to gain penetration at all the 800 bases across the US, which serve 1.3 million active troops, during the remaining half of this year.
The company is also pursuing additional opportunities across international military locations this year.
In June this year, Barfresh Food Group received approval to serve its range of smoothies across 150 dining facilities of the US armed forces.
