Natures Table Signs Up Dhvani Vyas For Washington

Restaurant entrepreneur Dhvani Vyas has signed a franchise agreement with Nature’s Table Café for the Washington, DC metro market. Founded in 1977, Nature’s Table is a pioneer in health-conscious dining, with 78 restaurants open in 12 states.

“Dhvani is proof that the American dream still exists; he exemplifies the ideals of the entrepreneurial American spirit,” said Nature’s Table founder, Dick Larsen. “We are honored to have him join the Nature’s Table family. He has already proven himself as a strong operator with Subway restaurants and Aromi d' Italia Cafe, and I have no doubt he will continue his success with Nature’s Table.”

Born in a small village Ahmedabad, India in a small village with no electricity or running water, Vyas was 7 years old when his family immigrated to the United States. Vyas worked in various retail jobs since the age of 14. After graduating from college, Vyas worked in the IT industry and hotel management, and then pursued a career in the restaurant industry as a franchisee consultant for Subway Corporation. In 2007, Vyas opened his own Subway restaurant in Greenbelt, Maryland. In 2009, Vyas created a European café concept, Aromi d' Italia Cafe, which is now thriving at the prestigious National Harbor Resort development outside Washington, DC.

Says Vyas “I loved the Nature’s Table concept from the start. More now then ever before, people are focused on healthier eating. Other restaurant chains are in a rush to change their menus to be healthier, but Nature’s Table is already there and has been since 1977. The food is delicious and high quality. Rather than grabbing a burger on the run and feeling guilty about it later, DC Metro Area residents will be able to get a salad, sandwich, wrap or fruit smoothie at Nature’s Table and feel good about it.”

Nature’s Table offers an array of quick and nutritious options including signature sandwiches served on several types of bread, gourmet wraps, specialty salads, soups, nutritional smoothies, natural fruits, coffees, breakfast offerings, desserts and snacks in a modern and inviting atmosphere, as well as a full catering program. The concept has found success in both traditional and non-traditional venues including Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, Orlando International Airport, T-Mobile and AT&T Wireless office buildings, turnpike plazas, health clubs, hospitals, college campuses and malls. The company prides itself on offering delicious and sensible meals in a simple to operate, fast casual format.
