LOOMIS, the nation’s leading challenger brand ad agency, has been selected as agency partner for Salad And Go, the breakthrough quick-service brand reshaping what drive-thru convenience can be. Known for delivering made-to-order salads, wraps, and breakfast items that are fast, fresh, and affordable, Salad And Go is on a mission to make nutritious food accessible for all without the compromises typically associated with some drive-thru dining.

Headquartered in Tempe, AZ, Salad And Go has 70 locations across Arizona and Nevada. Its innovative model combines chef-curated recipes, high-quality ingredients, and unmatched speed and value, positioning the company as one of the most exciting challenger brands in the QSR landscape today.

“We chose LOOMIS because they really understand the restaurant world, and they’ve spent decades helping challenger brands punch above their weight. Their ability to connect media, brand strategy, and real business results made them the right partner for us,” said Tom Carusona, Salad And Go Chief Marketing Officer.

LOOMIS will support the brand’s continued momentum with a focus on strengthening market presence, accelerating growth, and elevating the brand’s distinctive story across channels.

“Salad And Go is doing something pretty remarkable—bringing fresh, chef-inspired food to the drive-thru without asking people to trade quality for price. It’s the kind of challenger brand story we love, and we’re genuinely excited to help amplify their mission and fuel their growth.” — Julie Ondrusek, Partner

For LOOMIS, the partnership reflects the agency’s continued commitment to helping high-growth brands break through saturated markets with clear positioning, powerful storytelling, and media strategies that drive measurable results.
