Pokemoto recently announced new franchise agreements in five northeast markets – White Plains, NY and Mamaroneck, NY and a three pack deal in Hampshire County Massachusetts; specifically, the towns of Northampton, Amherst and Hadley. These newly signed agreements will grow the Pokemoto division’s footprint by 28%.
Muscle Maker, Inc. recently added Pokemoto to its healthier-focused lineup of brands increasing Muscle Maker’s top line revenue growth. Since its acquisition, Pokemoto has opened five new Pokemoto locations and plans to continue its expansion efforts through franchising. It is believed that the partnership with Franserve and its network of franchise sales consultants will boost Pokemoto’s efforts to strengthen and expand its traditional and non-traditional franchise pipeline. Pokemoto’s low cost of entry, ease of operations, exclusive territory options and multi-unit discounts make the trendy concept very attractive to prospective franchisees.
“Muscle Maker, Inc. recently acquired Pokemoto and it is our goal to continue our growth of the poke bowl concept through our franchising efforts,” said Mike Roper, CEO of Muscle Maker, Inc. “Partnering with Franserve, an organization focused on connecting franchisors like us with qualified leads puts 600+ franchise sales consultants in our corner along with numerous other resources and benefits which we’re already taking full advantage. We’ve already begun executing against our growth strategy by opening five new locations and signing up five new franchise locations in a short period of time. We recently launched a brand new energetic and interactive website that tells the story of our Millennial and Gen-Z fueled brand and highlights all of the benefits of becoming a Pokemoto franchisee. Our seasoned restaurant and real estate team veterans attended the Atlanta franchise show this past weekend and received great feedback on our multi-unit, growth-oriented concept. Basically, we’re very serious about our planned growth and we believe this partnership will help take our franchising efforts to the next level.”
