In the three short months since Capriotti’s Sandwich Shop’s acquired Wing Zone, both brands have seen remarkable achievements – including ten signed franchise agreements for each brand which will bring a total of 30 new Capriotti’s shops and 30 Wing Zone locations to communities across the country. Throughout the first quarter, Capriotti’s and Wing Zone have remained committed to innovation, profitability and growth and franchise partners have taken notice. Seeing the value that the leadership team brings to the table, franchise partners are reinvesting in both brands.
The agreements represent a healthy mix of single and multi-unit growth, with Capriotti’s franchisees showing interest in expanding their portfolios with Wing Zone locations and vice versa. The ten new Capriotti’s agreements are slated to expand the brand further into:
- Baltimore, MD
- Coeur d’Alene, ID
- Dallas-Ft Worth
- Las Vegas
- Santa Monica
- South Orange County, CA
- Southern Delaware
- Suffolk County, NY
- Tulsa, OK
- Yuba City, SA
The ten Wing Zone agreements will bring the brand to:
- Columbia, SC
- Dayton, OH
- Denver
- Des Moines
- Las Vegas
- Lexington, KY
- Los Angeles
- New York City
- Northwest Arkansas
- Raleigh-Durham
“A big reason why our franchise partners want to reinvest in our brands is because they feel confident in the leadership and direction both brands are heading,” says David Bloom, Chief Development Officer for Capriotti’s and Wing Zone. “Our expansion is validation of the strength of our business model and our partners are excited about the phase of growth for both brands. Our continued success is what makes us the industry leader and will continue to separate us from others out there.”
