Vitality Bowls in Tualatin has a new owner, local entrepreneur Andres Radilla, and a new look to go with it.
“Years ago, before starting my own cleaning business with my mom, I worked at Vitality Bowls. I really loved the environment and the fact that the food is so healthy and delicious,” Radilla said in the release. “I’ve worked in the food service industry for most of my life and wanted to continue to grow my experience, while helping a local business grow. The Vitality Bowls business model stood out to me as one I could help expand across Oregon, bringing healthier alternatives to even more communities.”
Radilla, 20, also owns a local sandwich shop, has cultivated the leadership and management skills necessary to operate a successful Vitality Bowls business through his previous ventures, Tara Gilad, president and co-founder of Vitality Bowls, said in the release.
“We look forward to seeing Andres grow his business in Tualatin and share the Vitality Bowls message,” she said. “Local community members will continue to benefit from the tasty, nutritious meals that they’ve come to know and love, while also supporting a small business.”
Over the last decade, Northern California-based Vitality Bowls has offered made-to-order healthy favorites for every meal of the day, featuring the widest variety of unique superfoods. Guests may choose from a range of açaí bowl options, such as the Dragon Bowl (featuring pitaya, mango juice, coconut milk, bananas, pineapple and raspberries) and its signature Vitality Bowl, made with organic açaí, bananas, strawberries and organic flax seed.
In addition to açaí bowls and smoothies, the brand recently launched salads, grain bowls, wraps and toasts. Options include the Vitality Wrap made with hummus, avocado, super greens, grains, roasted potato, radish, pickled red onion, lemon tahini vinaigrette, vegan garlic aioli and superseed crunch, wrapped in a tomato basil tortilla. Plus, all açaí bowls and smoothies are prepared without any ingredient fillers like ice, frozen yogurt or artificial preservatives.
There are over 145 Vitality Bowls locations open or in development.
