The Greene Turtle Steps Up Expansion Pace

Who says turtles are slow? On the heels of celebrating the opening of its 40^th unit, The Greene Turtle Sports Bar & Grille has inked a development agreement to open 10 locations in the counties surrounding the city of Philadelphia. This follows the 2014 deal for a separate group to open 11 units of the sports-themed casual-dining chain in New Jersey. Both development deals propel the Hanover, Md.-based chain toward New England and its goal of 150 locations throughout the East. The Greene Turtle was founded in 1976.
