Mission
The company's goal is that of financial success through a multifaceted
approach. We will meet this goal while trying to consider:
1) the effect of our products on the health and well being of our
customers (and our staff),
2) the impact that our business practices and choices will have on the
environment, and
3) the high quality of attitude, fairness, understanding, and
generosity between management, staff, customers, and vendors.
Awareness of all these factors and the responsible actions that result
will give our efforts a sense of purpose and meaning beyond our basic
financial goals.
Overview

In 1996, fast, fresh, healthy food was difficult to find
in Boston.

These wildly popular food concepts existed en masse
in California, but were far and few between in
Massachusetts and other parts of the country.

The Wrap was launched as a restaurant that featured
wraps, burritos, smoothies … in a friendly, casual
environment.

Building and running the first location helped the
management team identify the competencies that are
now at the core of The Wrap.

Success required three key ingredients: always being
fresh, friendly, and fast.
Core Competencies

A unique recipe for success in hand …
Bringing the healthy concept to more Bostonians.

Penetrating the markets of and eventually
acquiring competing businesses.

Fast menu that focused on simplicity,
mouth-watering recipes, and custom-ordering.

Keeping the focus on our customers - as long as our customers continue
to give thumbs up, The Wrap will slowly expand to communities that
value its food and its services, as well as its desire to give back to its
neighbors.
