Shawarma Press, a fast-casual Mediterranean cuisine franchise headquartered in the United States, has broadened its footprint within the country with the inauguration of a prominent flagship restaurant in Georgia.
Situated at Medlock Bridge Road in the Atlanta suburb of Johns Creek, the recently opened restaurant will welcome customers seven days a week.
Patrons have the choice of either dining in or selecting the takeout option.
The menu highlights Shawarma wraps crafted with either chicken or beef, along with other options like the zesty Tandoori Press Shawarma and the Tex-Mex Press Shawarma.
The restaurant also provides a selection of offerings such as falafels, hummus, soups, salads, protein bowls, and freshly baked pastries.
Sabri Sabri owns and manages Shawarma Press in Johns Creek. He established this restaurant in collaboration with his daughter, Shahed, who serves as the general manager of the new location and is a graduate of the Royal Academy of Culinary Arts in Jordan.
The new restaurant in Georgia is the first of several Shawarma Press franchise units planned for the state.
As stated by Sawsan Abublan, the CEO and co-founder of Shawarma Press, the launch in Georgia holds importance as it marks the beginning of several other Shawarma Press restaurants planned for various U.S. states in 2024.
Abublan said, “Currently, we are planning two more locations in Georgi, as well as another franchise unit in Kansas.
“In addition, there are multi-unit deals we expect to materialise at the Multi-Unit Franchise Conference in March 2024.
“But now we are excited about introducing authentic Shawarma and Mediterranean flavours to Georgia, as the Johns Creek area has a diverse customer base with sophisticated palates.”
Shawarma Press currently operates seven restaurants throughout Texas, located in Georgetown, Arlington, Irving, San Antonio, Plano, Frisco, and recently, a flagship establishment in the Dallas Arts District.
