Konala Healthy Fast Food to Open Three New Locations in 90 Days Across Spokane, Provo, and New Jersey

Konala will open three new locations over the next 90 days: Spokane, Washington on April 30; Provo, Utah on May 28; and Belleville, New Jersey in July. The brand has now signed 40 franchise units.

The Spokane is a corporate-owned store opening April 30 directly across from Gonzaga University’s basketball stadium. The restaurant occupies the ground-floor corner of a new student housing development owned by NBA Hall of Famer and Gonzaga alum John Stockton. Four weeks later, franchisee Tyson Adams will open Konala’s first Utah location in Provo - adjacent to Brigham Young University’s campus - inside a converted Arby’s.

Adams signed a five-unit development agreement and is already evaluating sites in Salt Lake City and other Utah markets. The third opening, franchisee Anthony Menicola’s first New Jersey location is slated for July.

“We're moving fast, but that’s intentional. Konala was built to scale quickly without sacrificing strategy or quality,” said Trace Miller, Founder and CEO of Konala. “We have franchisees signing leases, pursuing multiple locations, and preparing to open, while our corporate team is doing the same. From day one, the goal has been to build a model that’s scalable and makes healthy food as delicious and convenient as possible.”

“Opening my first Konala location is a very exciting moment for me,” said Adams. “It's one thing to believe in a concept, but another to see it start coming to life. The Provo site is just the beginning. We are already looking ahead to locking in the next few locations here in Utah.”

Both the Spokane and Provo locations sit adjacent to major university campuses, reinforcing Konala’s appeal in markets with high demand for fast, protein-forward food options. The brand’s menu is 100% gluten-free and built around bowls like Teriyaki Chicken, Greek Steak, and Chicken Burrito, with up to 55 grams of protein per bowl.
