Baja Fresh Opens Newest Location at John Hopkins Hospital
Baja Fresh Mexican Grill, the fast-casual fresh Mexican chain, is expanding in the Maryland market, opening a Baja Fresh Express location at the John Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore. The new restaurant offers flavorful and fresh Mexican food in an express format perfect for busy employees, guests, and patients alike.
“Johns Hopkins Hospital hosts over 1000 beds and 9000 employees at their main campus where we are located. This is an excellent location to serve all natural, fresh, made-to-order Mexican food to a health conscious group of people.”
The new location is owned and operated by Sumeet Goel of BFPA LLC and BFMD LLC. Goel also owns and operates 11 existing Baja Fresh locations throughout Maryland and Pennsylvania. The John Hopkins Hospital Baja Fresh Express is open from 10am-2am, 7 days per week. When asked why he opened a Baja Fresh in its particular location Goel responded, “Johns Hopkins Hospital hosts over 1000 beds and 9000 employees at their main campus where we are located. This is an excellent location to serve all natural, fresh, made-to-order Mexican food to a health conscious group of people.”
Baja Fresh President Charles Rink noted, "The Baja Fresh Express model opened in the John Hopkins Hospital is a great example of the brand’s expansion into non-traditional venues. The John Hopkins Baja Fresh Express is the 9th opened since August of 2008, and there are plans to open 15 more Express locations over the course of 2010. We look forward to the success of this restaurant and our continued partnership with Sumeet Goel and his team.”
