The Colorado-based salad seller Mad Greens opened its first drive-thru location last month to give customers “quick access to healthy dinner options without leaving their car.”
The store opened Feb. 20 about 8 miles southeast of Boulder. It serves “busy moms with kids in the back seat, tired commuters after a long day and customers on a short lunch break,” MAD Greens said in a release.
Altogether, MAD Greens has 31 locations in Colorado, Arizona, Texas and Utah. The company was founded in 2004 and expects to open other locations this year.
