Gurpreet and Navreet Boparai are longtime franchisees who have built a restaurant portfolio that includes three WaBa Grill locations in California’s Ventura County area. Their company is about to grow since they just signed a new 20-unit deal with the healthy rice bowl chain and will open locations from Fresno to Sacramento. The new agreement gives the Boparais exclusive rights to 16 California counties and will introduce the brand to several new markets in Northern California.
“Since we first started our franchise partnership with WaBa Grill in 2014, we have seen communities rally enthusiastically behind this brand and its quality products, commitment to a menu that serves every dietary preference and superior guest experience,” said Navreet Boparai. “Northern California is in need of a healthy rice bowl chain, and WaBa Grill’s fast and nutritious meals fuel our pride in growing our restaurant network in a part of the state that we believe will welcome the brand with the same passion we’ve witnessed in Ventura County.”
In addition to their three existing WaBa Grill locations, the Boparais also operate multiple El Pollo Loco, Little Caesars, and Subway restaurants.
