Six perfected salads. One drive-thru lane. Restaurant-quality greens you can grab in under five minutes. Think In-N-Out, but for salads that actually taste incredible.
Find a LocationYou are hungry, short on time, and sitting in your car. Your options? A soggy side salad from a burger chain, or parking, walking in, and waiting 20 minutes at a sit-down restaurant. For anyone who wants something fresh and fast, the gap in the market is painfully obvious.
Salads worth eating require a time commitment. Drive-thru salads require lowering your standards. Until now, there has been no middle ground.

The U.S. fast-casual restaurant market tops $100 billion, with the health-focused segment growing at roughly 10% per year. The salad and healthy bowl category alone represents an estimated $8 to $10 billion, and the drive-thru format remains almost entirely untapped.
A closer look at how FGS gets from concept to franchise.
Per-unit salad sales at $12 to $16 per salad with high margins thanks to the limited menu and streamlined prep. Additional revenue from fresh-squeezed lemonades, seasonal soups, and branded dressings sold retail. Franchise fees follow once the model is proven across 3 to 5 company-owned locations.
Launch with a single flagship location in a high-traffic suburban commercial corridor. Build buzz through local food influencer partnerships and a bold, recognizable brand identity. Offer a free salad to every customer during opening week to generate word-of-mouth and repeat visits.
The radically simple menu means faster prep, less food waste, and unmatched consistency. Unlike Sweetgreen or Chopt, FGS does not ask customers to build anything. Every salad is a finished, tested recipe. The drive-thru format removes the biggest friction point in healthy fast food: having to park and walk inside.
Estimated $250,000 to $500,000 for a single drive-thru location, covering build-out, commercial kitchen equipment, initial inventory, branding, and working capital for the first six months of operations.
