Mountain Mike’s Pizza is focusing its expansion efforts in northern California’s Humboldt County with a Eureka, California location already in development. Data uncovered during an in-depth market analysis paired with the brand’s longstanding success throughout northern California makes Humboldt County a natural fit for a concept like Mountain Mike’s, which caters to families, large groups and celebratory occasions. There are currently 211 Mountain Mike’s Pizza locations in operation throughout California, Oregon, Nevada, and Utah.
“There’s high demand for family-friendly dining options like Mountain Mike’s in and around Eureka, and I’m excited to grow our presence in the region to mirror the success we’ve seen in the North Bay,” says Sonu Chandi, president of Chandi Hospitality, the area development group responsible for expansion in Humboldt County. “As both an area developer and franchisee, I can speak to the unique benefits of owning a Mountain Mike’s that you just won’t find at any other franchise chain, and I’m looking forward to welcoming new franchise partners to the family.
Chandi Hospitality is one of Mountain Mike’s Pizza’s five area development agents, each responsible in their designated territories to acquire new franchisees, identify development sites, and ensure operations are running to brand standards. This model provides franchisees with added benefits in addition to the ongoing corporate support and resources offered by Mountain Mike’s Pizza’s dedicated leadership team.
“For over 40 years, Mountain Mike’s has been a popular choice for families and, with the help of dedicated franchisees, we’re excited to introduce our concept with confidence to pizza fans all over Humboldt county,” says Jim Metevier, president and COO of Mountain Mike’s Pizza, LLC. “Mountain Mike’s has developed a formula for success which enables our franchise partners to thrive and, with our unique area development strategy, Mountain Mike’s Pizza is poised to own a larger share of the nearly $45 billion pizza segment.”
Mountain Mike’s Pizza is actively seeking franchise candidates to grow with the brand in Humboldt County and throughout areas of California’s North Coast. With impressive new unit growth and positive systemwide sales year after year, Mountain Mike’s Pizza presents a business opportunity for entrepreneurs looking to expand their franchise portfolios and partner with an established brand on the rise.
