Salad and Go has filed for bankruptcy and shut all 70 of its drive-thru restaurants, bringing an abrupt end to more than a decade of operations across Arizona and Nevada. The decision, announced alongside the bankruptcy filing, means the healthy fast-food chain has closed its doors for good.
The closure, which took effect on Wednesday, 5 August, marks the end of a business whose main goal was to give fast food a healthier twist by serving fresh, affordable meals through a drive-thru model. Arizonans were surprised when they visited their local branches and were informed that the fast-food chain had ceased operations.
