Sip Fresh announced today a three-unit agreement with Kevin Tam, a respected operator in the industry, to bring new locations to the San Diego region. The development deal includes the acquisition of Sip Fresh's existing Westfield UTC Mall location adjacent to UC San Diego.

“After learning about Sip Fresh and meeting with the leadership team, it was evident that they were passionate not just about the product, but about people too,” said Tam. “The team is very in-tune with what today’s consumers want to purchase and what operators need to be successful. After assuming several roles in the food and service industry, I appreciate being able to share the same brand values, exceptional service standards, and true compassion for the community. Additionally, my background in operating mall concepts similar to Sip Fresh proves in itself a valuable opportunity to take advantage of high organic foot traffic and an exciting atmosphere. I am thrilled to be a part of the vibrant ambiance that Westfield UTC offers and beyond as I expand. Sip Fresh is truly a unique and exciting concept and I am thrilled to extend its joyous reputation to more residents throughout California.”

His brand experience ranges from national mall concepts like Wetzel’s Pretzels and Boston-based food trucks to fast-casual concepts such as Sweetgreen. Today, he holds several relationships with his network, spending his time as a mentor to others in the restaurant and retail space. Embarking into his career as an entrepreneur, Tam brings his passion for people, love for learning and creating new recipes, and determination to succeed in the lucrative beverage industry.
