He says, "Today I welcome a new group of shareholders to continue to drive our mission forward and together change the way the world eats. As we go public, we are excited about the earnings potential of our company. The IPO is not the finish line for us. It's just the starting line. We are in the earliest days of what I see possible for the Freshii brand. Over the next few years we are going to double our restaurant count, and I believe we will continue to be one of the most compelling growth stories and stocks in North America. As the Founder and CEO, I am all in to reach those goals. That's why for me, it's Freshii forever."
