For years, salads were little more than an afterthought on most restaurant menus. Choices besides “House or Caesar” were extremely limited and freshness was questionable at best. Salads weren’t granted entree status and if you wanted to design a salad yourself, your only real option was to do so at home. Far from a dining “experience.”
In 2002, Green Tango was founded with one goal in mind – to change all of that and put salads on the pedestal they deserve. Our approach is deceptively simple – start with the freshest ingredients, provide nearly limitless choice, and chop and toss each salad to order to create the ultimate salad experience.
Green Tango serves fresh chopped salads that are quick, healthy, and customer-designed. Our salads are prepared to order from more than seventy quality ingredients, including five lettuces, twelve dressings, and a wide variety of fresh vegetables, grilled meats, and cheeses.
The cost to open a Green Tango is estimated to be between $310,835 and $402,703. These numbers are dependent on many factors including size, location and condition of space
The initial franchise fee is $25,000, with a 4% royalty fee and a 2% brand ad fund.
