Lebanese fast-casual brand NAYAplans to open 17 new locations this year.
The New York City-based chain already launched two units during 2026 in Kendall Square, Cambridge, Massachusetts, and Jersey City, New Jersey, bringing its total to 43.
Second-quarter openings are on track for Sea Girt, New Jersey; Stamford, Connecticut; Burlington, Massachusetts and Boston’s Fenway Park. A New Hyde Park, New York, location is set to open July 1.
As NAYA aims for 200 locations by 2030, its growth strategy focuses on densely populated urban and suburban areas, including mixed-use “live, work, play” developments and select nontraditional venues.
