Justin Rosenberg is the Founder and CEO of honeygrow, a wholesome-

casual restaurant concept focused on vibrant, healthy and dynamic

foods through its stir-fry, salad, and honeybar programs. In 2012, Justin

opened and managed the first honeygrow located in Center City,

Philadelphia. Since then, Justin and his team have opened 16 stores

with locations ranging from the NYC Metro market to Washington DC.

In 2016, honeygrow was the recipient of the Nation’s Restaurant News

Hot Concept Award. For 2017, the company will be opening 8-10 new

locations.

Rosenberg founded honeygrow after working at Pennsylvania Real

Estate Investment Trust (PREIT) as a Manager of Energy Services and as

an Asset Manager where he oversaw a portfolio of approximately 25

regional shopping malls. Tired of sitting in a cubicle and with a passion

to create a sustainable, long-term company modeled after some of his

favorites (Apple, Southwest Airlines, and Whole Foods), Justin

combined his passion in cooking and plant-based eating with that of

music and design to create a business plan in hopes of raising capital

for the first location. After 2.5 years of looking for investors and

pitching 94 people, Rosenberg acquired the capital and subsequently

opened the first store. Since then, honeygrow has raised over $52MM

in equity financing to foster growth and technology driven projects.

While developing honeygrow, Justin spent his weekends working in the

kitchen of a fine-dining restaurant within the Washington DC area in an

effort to gain a solid foundation to properly run his own restaurant (still

then a pipedream!). Lessons learned from the fine-dining kitchen

played a significant role in shaping the culture and execution of

honeygrow’s fast-casual operations.

Justin resides in the Philadelphia suburbs with his wife, two daughters

and son.
