CAVA is the category-defining brand of Mediterranean fast and casual restaurants, bringing together healthy food and bold, satisfying flavors on a large scale. Our brand and our opportunity transcend the Mediterranean category to compete in the large and growing sector of limited-service restaurants, as well as in the category of health and wellness foods. CAVA serves guests of all genders, age groups and income levels, and benefits from generational factors generated by consumer demand for healthy living and the demographic shift towards greater ethnic diversity. We satisfy consumers' desires to interact with practical, authentic and purpose-driven brands that see food as a source of self-expression.
The great appeal of our foods, combined with these favorable industry trends, provides us with a great opportunity for continued growth. CAVA's New Orleans Community Day event raised funds for Second Harvest Food Bank of Lafayette and Greater Acadiana, a nonprofit organization dedicated to ending hunger through access to food, promotion, education and disaster response. The funds raised during the inauguration of CAVA in Murphy will go to the North Texas Food Bank, an anti-hunger organization that distributes donated and purchased food through a network of nearly 500 agencies and partner organizations in 13 counties. With Mediterranean-inspired bowls, pitas, sauces and dressings, the chain of fast and casual food restaurants serves delicious food that helps people to eat and live well.
