The Salad Project operates a chain of premium salad bars offering fresh, customizable salads aimed at health-conscious consumers. Founded in 2021 by Florian de Chezelles and Jacob Dare in London’s Spitalfields, the company has grown to seven locations across the city. Its product strategy focuses on high-quality ingredients and a creative menu that resonates with urban diners seeking healthy convenience. With the newly secured capital, the team plans to open six to seven additional branches in London to meet strong local demand. The business also intends to launch its first international site in Paris’ Le Sentier district in spring/summer 2026, positioning this as a springboard for wider European expansion. Management has expressed an ambition to reach 20 sites by mid-2027, underscoring its aggressive growth trajectory. Backers highlight the brand’s strong consumer following and operational execution as key drivers of its rapid scale-up.
