About CAVA Group

From its filings with the US Securities and Exchange Commission

SEC filings

CAVA Group is based in Washington, Washington, DC and is incorporated in Delaware. Its shares trade on NYSE under the ticker CAVA. The SEC classifies its business as retail-eating places. In the fiscal year to 28 December 2025, it reported revenue of $1.18bn and net income of $63.7m. At that date it held total assets of $1.36bn and shareholders' equity of $779.7m.

In its own words

CAVA Group, Inc. (together with its wholly owned subsidiaries, referred to as the “Company,” “CAVA,” “we,” “us,” and “our,” unless specified otherwise) was formed as a Delaware corporation in 2015, and prior to that, the first CAVA restaurant opened in 2011 in Bethesda, Maryland. As of December 28, 2025, we operate 439 fast-casual CAVA Restaurants in 28 states and Washington, D.C. The Company’s authentic Mediterranean cuisine unites taste and health, with a menu that features chef-curated and customizable bowls and pitas. We centrally produce our dips, spreads, and certain dressing bases for use in our restaurants while also selling our dips, spreads, and prepared dressings in grocery stores.

As of December 28, 2025, we employed approximately 12,900 Team Members in our restaurants and 580 within manufacturing and our Collaboration Center Organization. From the very beginning, our founders were focused on ensuring CAVA treated all Team Members with generosity – we believe the health and well-being of our Team Members are just as important as the health of our food. Our Employee Net Promoter Score indicates we have a highly engaged team according to Denison Consulting, which conducted our 2025 Team Member engagement survey.
