Chipotle to open at Trenholm Plaza

Forest Acres, S.C. Columbia, S.C.-based Edens & Avant said Monday that Chipotle Mexican Grill will open a first-to-market location at Trenholm Plaza.

Chipotle is slated to open in late 2009.

Gourmet burritos made with high-quality ingredients are in store for shoppers in Forest Acres, S.C. Chipotle Mexican Grill is scheduled to open at Trenholm Plaza late this year. The center has been undergoing a major redevelopment.

“This is a national brand with local interests and a business model we respect,” said Lyle Darnall, managing director at Edens & Avant, which owns Trenholm Plaza. “Changes to the center so far have been enormously popular, and we expect to get more great feedback when Chipotle opens.”

Bumble Boutique/B.E.E. Maternal opened adjacent to Starbucks earlier this month. The specialty retailer of children’s clothing and maternity wear will move to a permanent location adjacent to Hooligan’s once construction of that building is complete. Additional retailers coming to the center will be announced in the near future, said Edens & Avant.
