Healthy eating franchise chain Sushi Sushi has arrived in South Australia.

With a soft opening in late June 2017, the first Sushi Sushi store is in the New Royal Adelaide Hospital and according to Gavan Meadows, general manager of franchise sales and marketing, delivers on a strategic proposition for the organisation.

“The alignment with a prominent healthcare facility helps to reinforce our position as a high quality, healthy and fresh convenience food,” he says.

“Unfortunately, there are many on-the-go foods – including other sushi providers – that are far from healthy and fall short on freshness and quality, and we are committed to filling that gap.

“We also wanted our first Adelaide store to have true meaning and a real sense of community, so the partnership with New Royal Adelaide Hospital was a natural fit,” said Meadows.

The second Adelaide store will open in the City Cross Arcade in the CBD in late July, 2017.

The launch forms part of a broader plan to open up to 12 Sushi Sushi outlets throughout South Australia over the next two to three years.
