With healthy, fast-casual on-the-go meals at the forefront of the food and beverage industry, eatery Organic Krush is helping pave the way. This new “lifestyle eatery” will join Westport, CT’s Compo Acres Shopping Center as one of two new Connecticut Organic Krush locations.

The concept was inspired by a mutual desire for a local one-stop-shop offering healthy lunch, organic coffee and a family dinner that founders Fran Paniccia and Michelle Walrath would feel good about serving their children. Nine months later and after joining forces with chef James Tchinnis, Organic Krush opened its flagship location in Woodbury, NY, and has eight storefronts today.

After learning about Organic Krush and dining in myself, I was immediately hooked and knew it would be an incredible addition to Compo Acres,” said Sean Mirkov, Leasing Agent. “It not only offers healthy and organic options, but Organic Krush also has great smoothie and juice options that I know our fitness merchants and customers will love. We're thrilled for the opening and foresee many years of success at Compo Acres.
