Sweetgreen (NYSE: SG) has attempted to stand out in the fast-casual restaurant space by emphasizing healthy food. Even though other restaurants, such as Chipotle and Cava Group , emphasize natural ingredients, Sweetgreen more explicitly focuses on health and sustainability and has introduced automation in an attempt to cut costs.
Nonetheless, Sweetgreen stock sells at a fraction of its $28 per share initial public offering (IPO) price from 2021. Knowing that, can Sweetgreen find a way to generate shareholder returns, or is this a stock investors need to avoid?
