To mark the opening of its first Northern Ireland store, Freshii, the leading global healthy eating fast food restaurant chain, is supporting Miss Northern Ireland, Emma Carswell as she participates in Belfast City Marathon to raise funds for the race’s official charity partner Mencap.
The newly opened Freshii store in Belfast is located in an iconic building on 1 Donegall Square West – adjacent to the 35th Deep RiverRock Belfast City Marathon starting line.
Thousands of participants and spectators are expected at the popular race, which is taking place in the city on Bank Holiday Monday, May 1.
Freshii Belfast’s Operation Manager Conall Kelly said: “Since we are right at the heart of one of Belfast’s biggest sporting events of the year, it is the perfect time to introduce the Freshii brand and show our commitment to bringing great healthy food and a new way to eat in the city.
