TL;DR
Pokemoto, a Hawaiian poke bowl restaurant concept, has opened a new location in Orange Park, Florida, sharing a space with Superfit Foods, its Meal Prep sister brand. The new location is designed to optimize takeout and online orders through third-party partners.
Burleson, Texas, Aug. 29, 2022 // GLOBE NEWSWIRE // - Pokemoto, Muscle Maker, Inc.’s (Nasdaq: GRIL) expanding Hawaiian poke bowl restaurant concept, today announced the grand opening of a new company owned Pokemoto in Orange Park, FL. The newest Pokemoto Hawaiian eatery shares the same leased space as Superfit Foods, the company’s Meal Prep sister brand. This announcement comes on the heels of the Mississippi grand opening announcement early last week.
Located at 700 Blanding Blvd, the Superfit Foods space is approximately 4,000 sq feet with Pokemoto now occupying 300 sq feet of that space. The non-traditional Pokemoto location is designed to optimize takeout or order online through third party partners such as SnackPass, UberEats, DoorDash and GrubHub. Superfit Food’s production of fresh to order meal prep exists in the background of the space in a commercial kitchen and a fully refrigerated cooler room where meals are assembled and held for distribution to homes and over 30 pickup spots in the Jacksonville area.
By adding a Pokemoto location to the front of the Superfit Foods facility, the company can maximize the total leased space while also reducing overhead costs. In addition, the company was able to work with existing Superfit Foods employees providing more hours and benefits for the team. The new Pokemoto location will act as a seed location for the Jacksonville and Northern Florida market.
This location, while a smaller footprint than our traditional Pokemoto restaurants, features our newly designed interior graphics package, new exterior signage and updated menu. We’re thrilled to be in Orange Park serving up our delicious bowls and boba teas!” said Michael Roper, CEO.
