The details on the official opening and exact location remain under wrap, but for now, Cole plans to open up a new storefront every month for the remainder of 2022.

“I am so excited because we get to scale,” she said to the Charlotte Observer. “Slutty Vegan is about to be everywhere, and it is about to be a household name.”
