Organic To Go Food Corporation is a cafe and catering company that serves meals made with organic and natural ingredients. Their philosophy is that food for “those on the go” does not have to sacrifice nutrition just because it’s always ready to go. With corporate offices in Seattle, Washington, and Los Angeles, California, the company is America’s first fast-casual cafe to be a USDA certified as an organic retailer.
Trading on the OTCBB, Organic To Go is part of the Specialty Eateries industry. Their current market capitalization is $45.41M. Most of their cafes reside in office towers and business districts, where the need for ready-made meals is prevalent during hectic workdays. Many of the company’s eateries are of the small, quick, grab-and-go variety. However, they also have locations which offer sit-down dining with bamboo chairs, tables, and comfortable armchairs and sofas.
Organic To Go Food Corporation went public in 2007. They have locations in Seattle, Los Angeles, Orange County, and San Diego. Their organic and natural food is available in over 160 locations. These include 26 cafés, over 120 wholesale locations, 14 universities and 11 locations at Los Angeles International Airport. The company’s commitment is to producing products made with organic ingredients whenever possible, while making sure they are always natural, free of harmful chemicals, and designed with great care.
The company is experiencing sustained growth. They began 2007 with 12 cafés and ended the year with 26 cafés. They believe one of the keys to their success is offering products that are great tasting while being a convenient alternative to foods that contain harmful additives such as antibiotics, growth hormones, and pesticides. With consumers demanding this from today’s businesses, Organic To Go Food Corporation is constantly coming up with new fare to satisfy these demands.
Organic To Go’s cafes offer an organic and Free Trade Certified coffee program, bakeries with organic and natural ingredients, hot breakfast sandwiches, organic fruit and yogurt parfaits, as well as Fresh Juice bars, along with other fare. The company’s catering service is a big part of their success as well. This service offers simple delivery drop-off, as well as full service catering with linens and skilled wait staff. Their catering specialists can help plan small corporate meetings, company BBQs, or even buffet dinners for thousands.
