FOCUS Brands Targets Boston Market for Expansion
Sweet Franchise Opportunities Available With Carvel & Cinnabon
(firmenpresse) - ATLANTA, GA -- (Marketwire) -- 08/03/11 -- FOCUS Brands, the franchisor and operator of more than 3,300 ice cream stores, bakeries, restaurants and cafes in 47 states and 42 countries, is pleased to announce an aggressive plan for growth in the Boston market. Community members are invited to learn more about the "sweet" ownership and franchise opportunities available with Carvel and Cinnabon during a special "Discovery Days" market tour the week of August 8th.
Hosted at current FOCUS locations, these informal, hands-on events will allow attendees to tour a current store, meeting with a development team member first-hand to see how these businesses operate, and hear the success stories of current franchisees.
Company plans call for 30 Carvel and 10 Cinnabon locations over the next two years throughout the Boston and surrounding markets. The openings would bring as many as 500 new part- and full-time jobs to the area.
After more than 75 years in business, Carvel continues to build upon its rich heritage as the nation's first retail ice cream chain. Just this year, 50 new domestic franchise agreements have been signed. With no Carvel locations currently located in the Boston DMA, this is a great opportunity for multi-unit or individual owner/operators looking for a fresh, premium market.
Since 1985, Cinnabon's success has risen as fast as its dough. In 2009, a new bakery design concept was launched celebrating the magic of the baking process that's not only turned heads but also turned up sales. Just this year, 50 new domestic bakeries have opened, with over 70 sold. And, with only two Cinnabon locations currently in the Boston DMA, now is the perfect time to join the most delicious franchise on the planet!
The announcement of the expansion plans for Carvel and Cinnabon throughout the Boston area is part of a larger strategy on behalf of FOCUS Brands to create a strong market presence in prime, family-oriented locations. Target sites include malls, and strip centers close to schools, parks, shopping districts and other recreational areas.
