English term or phrase: Greenfield startup
The underlying goal of the company’s footprint strategy in the secure shredding space is to develop the ability to offer a shredding solution in all XXX markets. Expansion will come from two sources:

1. Acquisitions
2. Greenfield startups

The plan calls for acquisition activity to focus on Tier IV and V markets (managed by the XXX field management team), while Tier I, II and III markets will expand through the establishment of new Greenfield operations. A Greenfield startup (GFS) is a mobile shredding business, based at an XXX hardcopy facility and managed by that district’s management team. GFS locations will be restricted to mobile shredding only. Existing operations, large customer requirements, or opportunities may be exceptions to the tiered expansion strategy.

...

Near the conclusion of our beta startups in Orlando, Hartford and Kansas City we will begin selecting the next round of cities. If all goes well we will be aggressive in our approach. A “Greenfield Startup Kit” will be forwarded upon city selection and preparation will begin 90 to 120 days before the startup date. I urge you to begin thinking about how this might affect your business.

Explanation:
since it is a proprietary name, one shouldn't translate it - though you may want to add a footnote - regarding "startup" and/or "kit"

Start-up kit = equipo inicial / kit inicial
