Health fast food brand, Soul Origin, has continued its rapid expansion with the opening of its 50th store last week and first Melbourne outlet as part of Chadstone’s new dining precinct.

Owner Sherwin Djamil, a multi-site franchisee who also owns three Sydney based stores and is Soul Origin’s Franchisee of the Year for 2016, is excited to be the first to bring the brand to Melbourne.

“I’m proud to be involved in such an exciting, award-winning brand, and play a part in its rapid growth,” said Djamil.

“I look forward to offering healthy on-the-go options to busy people in Melbourne, and always give them service with a smile.”

The health brand has stores operate across three formats – kiosks, inline stores, and walk in stores – with footprints ranging from 25sqm to 101sqm.

The new store will also be collecting gold coin donations for its charity of choice, the Starlight Foundation.

Soul Origin recently won Best Multi-Site Restaurant at the QSR Media Awards, in recognition of accomplishments made in the quick service restaurant industry.
