Speaking at the announcement of the new outlets, Brian Lee, co-founder and managing director of Chopped described 2016 as “a real breakthrough year for Chopped” and said the company’s . “vision and plan from the start was to have a Chopped in all the main shopping centres and on every high street and thoroughfare in Ireland.” He added that Chopped has “a few more planned outside Dublin”.
Frank Gleeson, region managing director, Northern Europe, Aramark said it “we are changing the face of food service in Ireland through our focus on helping guests eating in Aramark restaurants live healthier lifestyles.” Chopped is therefore seen as the “perfect partner for Aramark”.
