"We could not be more excited to share 'Just Feel Good Food' with North Texas," said Jason Morgan, CEO of Original ChopShop.

We believe folks will appreciate the authenticity, approachability and versatility of this brand – as it's a concept that truly fits into our guests' daily lives."

The company plans to open three more locations in the Dallas area by end of year, including two locations in Plano at the Shops of Legacy and the intersection of Park & Preston, as well as in Dallas at University Park.
