Founded in 2010 by Ike Grigoropoulos, Chef Dimitri Moshovitis, Ted Xenohristos, and Brett Schulman, and headquartered at 14 Ridge Square NW, Suite 500 in Washington, D.C., CAVA operates two production facilities in Maryland and Virginia to support its restaurant and retail offerings targeting health-conscious consumers across demographics with accommodations for vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, dairy-free, paleo, keto, and nut-free diets. The company, which acquired Zoës Kitchen in 2018 and subsequently converted or closed those locations, reported 20% year-over-year revenue growth and 1.9% same-restaurant sales growth in its fiscal third quarter of 2025 while opening 17 new restaurants, reflecting ongoing expansion in the limited-service restaurant and health-and-wellness food sectors.
