Local Entrepreneur Opens New Cafe; Serves as Community Hub for Eating Healthy

The wait is over in Castro Valley.

Local residents, professionals and students no longer need to struggle with eating healthy when out and about. Vitality Bowls, which specializes in acai bowls - a thick blend of the Amazon's antioxidant-rich acai berry, topped with a variety of superfoods - announced today the opening of its cafe in Castro Valley. The new franchise location will be the first for Debra Ochoa, who plans to open one additional cafe in San Leandro.

"From the first bite I took from an acai� bowl at Vitality Bowls, I knew it was the start of a new journey for me," said Ochoa, a seasoned professional with years of management experience. "The incredible taste of the fresh ingredients and the feeling it provides is just an unbeatable combination."

Slated to open on December 10th, the new restaurant will be located at 20668 Rustic Dr, conveniently situated at the busy intersection of Castro Valley Blvd and Redwood Rd.

This restaurant will be the 16th Vitality Bowls cafe in California joining the 19 locations based nationwide.

Originating in Northern California, Vitality Bowls has solidified itself as America's superfood cafe - combining a dynamic cafe vibe with a unique collection of menu items containing high nutritional values and extraordinary tastes. Vitality Bowls offers an antioxidant-rich menu, with breakfast, lunch and dinner items made to order for each customer. All acai bowls and smoothies do not contain ingredient fillers such as ice, frozen yogurt, added sugar or artificial preservatives, giving the purest taste possible.

The menu features a variety of options, such as the Energy Bowl (with organic acai�, goji berries and bee pollen), the Dragon Bowl (featuring organic pitaya, coconut milk and bananas) and their signature Vitality Bowl (with organic acai�, strawberries and honey).

Additionally, the brand recently announced exclusive additions to their kids menu. Plus, fresh juices, organic soups, panini and salads are available in each cafe.

"Simply put, we created Vitality Bowls to be a place where health-conscious individuals can go for a nutritional meal," said Tara Gilad, founder and owner of Vitality Bowls. "We believe that healthy food can be an option for fast casual food and we are excited to have Debra on board. We look forward to seeing Debra grow her business in Castro Valley and sharing the Vitality Bowls message with the community."

Since launching in 2011, the brand has ignited significant growth. In 2014, the concept began franchising and within the past 12 months has signed development deals for nearly 40 units. Today, there are currently 19 open and operating with additional units in development.

About Vitality Bowls


Roy and Tara Gilad, a pair of successful business owners, founded Vitality Bowls in 2011 in San Ramon, California.

Since franchising began in 2014, the brand has seen significant growth with nearly 40 cafes open and in development. Today, Vitality Bowls is redefining the fast casual healthy food restaurant sector every day at each of its locations across the country.
