Kabab-ji is a leading chain of Lebanese/Mediterranean cuisine, which emphasizes product freshness and healthy cooking. Kabab-ji started in Lebanon in the early 1990s, and has now spread throughout the Middle East through franchising.

The evolving demand for health-oriented cuisines is creating a favorable opportunity for concepts such as Kabab-ji to succeed in the US market. As such, the Fund has forged a joint-venture with the owner of Kabab-ji, Mr. Toufic Khoueiri, to develop the original Kabab-ji concept in the United States. Kabab-ji will bring the name, know-how, management and vast experience in the field, while the Fund and its associated investors will provide capital, financial oversight and assist in the business strategy evolution.

Kabab-ji, with its focus on quality, freshness and tasteful food, should become the leading brand in the fast-casual segment of Mediterranean cuisine in the US.

^^Their website says Washington, D.C. I'm curious where he got this specific announcement from.
