QSR: CoreLife Eatery Increases Franchise Footprint in North Carolina

With more than 25 years of experience in franchise development, Danny Grammenopoulos is now applying his expertise to CoreLife Eatery, facilitating the brand's latest expansion effort with a new franchise location set to open this December in Greensboro, North Carolina, with at least two more locations coming in 2019.

According to QSR, Mr. Grammenopoulos opened his first franchise while still in college and immediately realized that he had found his career path.

“I fell in love with helping others and getting them into a business they might not have been able to enter otherwise. I love building businesses and opening them up," Grammenopoulos said.

Grammenopoulos's passion for franchising has extended to his son George, who will serve as Vice President of CoreLife Eatery’s Company Operations, and his daughter Marilyn, who will join as the company’s Vice President of People & Culture.

Led by CEO Larry Wilson, the CoreLife Eatery executive team is focused on bringing the eatery to communities lacking convenient access to healthy and affordable eating alternatives. QSR reports that CoreLife Eatery plans to expand to 300 locations, including both corporate and franchise restaurants, nationwide over the next five years.
