Russo’s New York Pizzeria & Italian Kitchen Signs 5-Unit Franchise Deal in Texas

Authentic Italian Pizza Concept to Open New Locations in Galveston and Spring, TX by End of 2021.

HOUSTON — Russo’s New York Pizzeria & Italian Kitchen, a popular Houston-based fast-casual pizza brand, has signed a new multi-unit franchise agreement that will increase Russo’s presence in Texas with new restaurants in Galveston, Bender’s Landing and Spring. The five-unit deal is signed with a local entrepreneurial couple with deep roots in restaurant franchising and are eager to make Russo’s their new family business.

Husband-and-wife team Randy and Ayesha McCoy will open the new Russo’s locations. Randy grew up in Galveston, TX and at age 13 worked his first job at the original Russo’s. Since then, he’s spent years working and managing in the restaurant industry, and also owned and operated an independent pizza shop in the state. Randy’s lifelong goal as an entrepreneur was to own an Italian restaurant in Texas, and he says that when he reached out to Russo’s Founder Anthony Russo to discuss franchising opportunities, it was a moment that his life, career, and goals came full circle.

“This is such an exciting milestone for me and my family because I’m fulfilling a lifelong dream of mine while also planting the seeds for my children’s future and many generations to come. The original Russo’s kitchen was where it all began for me, and that charm and authenticity I fell in love with hasn’t changed a bit. Joining the Russo’s family as a franchisee feels like a dream come true that’s been over 30 years in the making,” said Randy McCoy.

“I’m so excited to welcome Randy back to the Russo’s family and look forward to seeing him grow our brand so even more Texans can try our authentic Italian family recipes I grew up with,” said Chef Anthony Russo, Founder and CEO of Russo’s New York Pizzeria & Italian Restaurants. “In addition to their admirable passion for authentic Italian cuisine, the McCoy’s strong desire to make Russo’s a family business is precisely what Russo’s stands for. This is a special moment for me and the McCoy family because it’s the start of a new legacy that will be passed down for generations and an extension of what Russo’s is all about.”

In addition to the several new restaurants coming to Texas, Russo’s has signed a five-unit franchise agreement to bring restaurants to the Fresno area in California. The brand has also expanded internationally in the Middle East during the COVID-19 Pandemic.

Russo’s is known for its New York-style pizza and authentic Italian family recipes. Their scratch Italian kitchen with 650-degree pizza ovens allows franchisees to make unique pizzas that use original recipes, fresh ingredients, and cost-effect measures to provide pizza flavors, unlike anything tasted before. Some fan favorites include Truffle Mushroom, Prosciutto & Burrata, and Prosciutto & Fig pizzas. Other menu items include Truffle Tortellini, Caprese Pasta, Chicken Piccata, Pappardelle Carbonara; as well as gourmet soups, salads, and desserts.

Russo’s restaurants are custom designed with an open kitchen concept, counter service, and limited employees for maximum revenue and lower labor costs. Russo’s lower-than-average labor costs kitchen concept can help franchisees manage the restaurant industry’s nationwide labor shortages, due to the pandemic, and the prospective increase in the minimum wage. According to Russo’s Franchise Financial Performance Average, the average unit volume of each Russo’s franchise location is $980,900; average food costs are 21%; average labor costs are 23%, and the average income is 19.2%. The average store investment ranges from $350,000– $895,000. Qualified candidates must have at least $200,000 in liquid capital. For more information, please visit https://www.russosfranchise.com/

Anago Cleaning Systems First to Earn GBAC Star Facility Rating

Tatyana Stemkovski2021-05-18T13:03:09-04:00May 18th, 2021|Tags: anago cleaning systems, commercial cleaning franchise system, commercial cleaning service, Master franchise opportunities|

Anago Leads by Example by Being the Nation’s First Commercial Cleaning Franchise, and Among First of South Florida Companies, to Earn Coveted Biorisk Accreditation.

POMPANO BEACH, Fla. — Anago Cleaning Systems today announced it had earned the highest rating issued by the GBAC (Global Biorisk Advisory Council) for ensuring facilities implement strict protocols for biorisk situations. Speaking about the GBAC STAR™ rating system, John Barret, Executive Director, ISSA (International Safety Standards Association), said the accreditation program is precisely what facilities need to reopen and keep staff, customers, and communities safe. As the only nationwide commercial cleaning franchise to be accredited with the GBAC STAR™ award, Anago joins high-profile facilities including the Hard Rock Stadium – home of the NFL’s Miami Dolphins, the South Florida Science Center and Aquarium, Banc of California Stadium in Los Angeles, and the Capital One Arena in our nation’s capital.

According to the GBAC/ISSA website, the GBAC STAR™ award is the cleaning industry’s only outbreak prevention, response, and recovery accreditation. As the gold standard in facility cleaning services, GBAC bases its accreditation program on three main areas: an established and maintained cleaning, disinfection, and infectious disease prevention program to minimize risks associated with infectious agents like the novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2); having proper cleaning protocols, disinfection techniques, and work practices in place to combat biohazards and infectious disease; and the use of highly informed cleaning professionals who are trained for an outbreak and infectious disease preparation and response.

“Anago Cleaning Systems is proud to be the first commercial cleaning franchise company in the nation to earn this significant benchmark in biorisk cleanliness and workplace safety,” said Adam Povlitz, CEO & President of Anago Cleaning Systems. “As a leader in the commercial cleaning franchise industry, it is imperative to stay up-to-date with the most advanced and innovative cleaning and disinfection practices and adopt them in our South Florida-based international headquarters.”

Povlitz added that Anago had adopted the GBAC accreditation process into its international Master and Unit franchise program guidelines. Each business serviced by an Anago franchise is implementing the latest cleaning and disinfectant protocols learned through the COVID-19 experience.

The COVID-19 pandemic caused global and socio-economic damage, and in the beginning, the commercial cleaning industry was no exception. To rise to the COVID-19 challenge, Anago quickly pivoted and launched a brand-new specialized cleaning service, Protection+ Disinfection™, developed with recommendations provided by the Centers for Disease Control, Environmental Protection Agency, and Health Canada. This new program was welcomed by franchise owners and customers and made a difference in the survival of many local businesses.

“As a COVID-19 frontline industry, Anago was committed through each step of the pandemic by continuing to evolve and implement new disinfecting protocols when they became available. Since its inception, Anago has maintained a firm seat on the cutting edge of new technologies in both cleaning applications and processes, and in customer service as well,” added Povlitz.

Commercial cleaning is reported to be among a tiny group of industries considered recession and pandemic-resistant franchises for risk-averse entrepreneurs. When faced with other historical global events such as the 2008 financial meltdown and the H1N1 virus, commercial cleaning not only survived as an industry but grew exponentially as the demand increased and stabilized.

At Anago, several growth factors prove the industry’s viability and profitability under global financial or social stress. The first is the number of inquiries for franchise opportunities. During COVID, Anago’s data reported a nearly 200 percent increase in interested franchise candidates. At the same time, franchise openings increased by almost 20 percent, with specialty services such as disinfection programs also increased over 200 percent. These specialty services, which are now being included in COVID-19-inspired contracts, have doubled category sales quickly.

Anago Cleaning Systems is a pioneer of the master franchise system, allowing successful mid-career professionals to operate their exclusive regional franchises and providing opportunities for motivated entrepreneurs to create their own small businesses. Both levels focus on running their business while Anago Cleaning Systems provides assistance, guidance, and critical tools to grow.

About Anago Cleaning Systems

Anago Cleaning Systems is an international commercial cleaning franchise brand. Utilizing the Master Franchise System, Anago supports over 45 Master Franchisees and over 1,700 Unit Franchisees. Founded in 1989, Anago has set the worldwide standard in business support and structure for local and regional companies to provide unparalleled cleaning services to businesses of all kinds. Anago was ranked #33 overall by Entrepreneur magazine in its latest Franchise 500® ranking. In 2021, Anago’s South Florida international headquarters earned the coveted GBAC STAR™ accreditation for implementing strict protocols for biorisk situations.

The World’s most beloved local sub shop drives their curiosity factor with expansion across North America.

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — Established in 1988, Jon Smith Subs, a South Florida-based sub sandwich franchise known for their over-stuffed grilled subs and fresh ingredients, is moving into 2021 with a refreshed brand. The rebranding, which entails the unveiling of a new “modern retro” design with a new logo, tagline and campaign promise is an integrated element of the franchise’s current growth strategy.

Having been in business for over 33 years, the brand decided that it was time for a refresh, building on the solid history and performance over the last few years as a part of United Franchise Group’s affiliated family of brands. The re-branding is accompanied by a bold new logo, refreshed interior design elements, a new tagline, an updated rewards program as well as a new website. Jon Smith Subs’ refreshed brand is intended to reflect the commitment to sparking customers’ curiosity as the franchise is rapidly growing across the country and with their first entry in Canada to open this June.

Jim Butler, President of Jon Smith Subs remarked, “We define ourselves as a curiosity brand. As we’ve opened in new markets, the excitement of ‘something new’ sparks our customers’ interest and they stop in for a visit to find out exactly who we are.” Butler added, “Our growth goals involve continuing to open throughout the USA and international locations and to continue driving our curiosity factor in target markets.

The new tagline, “Love Local, Eat Delicious”, showcases Jon Smith Subs’ culture of investing in their local communities and providing their customers with larger-than-life subs jam packed with flavor. The brand has created the unique experience of offering flexible menus that uniquely provide “local favorites” from their respective regions, including The Gator, The Cuban, Hot Pastrami, The Reuben, and Cajun Chicken; all offer something for the most discriminating sandwich lover. Additionally, they have highlighted how they uniquely offer a scratch-made concept that includes freshly baked bread, hand-grilled sandwich ingredients, and crispy french fries.

“We find it’s important to emphasize that our subs are ‘delicious’, a word that is commonly under-used by brands. Our mouthwatering flavors accompany our messaging around our ‘overstuffed subs’, really emphasizing the hearty portions our patrons are receiving. ” commented Butler, adding, “We find these are all unique factors about our brand that set us apart from our competitors. In the end we want your town to be a Jon Smith Subs town!”

Accompanying their new tagline is the introduction of Jon Smith Subs’ new campaign “Bring Your Big Mouth!” The rewards program, referred to as BYBM, provides their customers with updates on special event, new menu items, menu reviews and more.

Emerging Boutique Fitness Concept Focused on Walking and Running Inks Deals to Open in Metro and Surrounding Areas.

IRVINE, Calif. — STRIDE, a boutique fitness franchise that is reinventing the definition of a runner through treadmill-based interval training, announced today it has signed a new agreement which gives the franchise partner the opportunity to bring seven new studios to the greater Denver area.

They also have past experience managing fitness centers.

“Colorado has consistently ranked as the fittest state in the union for the last decade and yet, there is no single indoor space dedicated to walking, jogging, and running,” said Jeff Stokes, President of STRIDE. “We saw such a great opportunity to reach the people of Denver and help fill the void by providing safe, healthy, beautiful spaces where anyone can walk, jog, run and transform.”

Founded in 2017 in Pasadena, CA, STRIDE taps into the millions of runners and people who identify as walkers in the United States with its treadmill-based workouts that provide a mix of cardio and strength intervals, all performed on STRIDE’s state-of-the-art Woodway Treadmills.

Screenmobile Signs Franchise Agreement to Open Three New Locations in Austin

Tatyana Stemkovski2021-05-12T11:06:13-04:00May 12th, 2021|Tags: mobile screen service franchise, screen repair and installation franchise, Screenmobile|

Industry Leading Service Brand Franchise Concept Announces Aggressive Growth Plans for Texas.

THOUSAND PALMS, Calif. — Screenmobile, the nation’s largest mobile screen repair and installation franchise concept, announced today multi-unit operator Nick Rosso has signed a deal to bring three new locations to Austin, Texas, selling out the territory for franchise development. With the first location slated to open in June 2021, Screenmobile’s continued expansion in Austin showcases the brand’s growth potential for Texas, fueled by the exceptional success of its existing locations statewide.

Nick Rosso is a seasoned veteran in the service industry. He is a co-owner and operator of Screenmobile locations in Omaha, Nebraska and Phoenix, Arizona, and has been a franchisee with the company since 2015. Rosso will begin serving Austin once his first location opens in June, expanding the community’s access to Screenmobile’s unparalleled level of service, industry-leading products and unmatched mobile capabilities. The team of experts at Screenmobile of Austin bring their services straight to the customers door, and from initial consultation to the completion of all projects, effectively and efficiently measure, manufacture and install screens for windows, doors, porches, patios, and more all on-site.

“Since joining Screenmobile in 2015, the company’s support and proven processes have helped me build a thriving, profitable business that has grown tremendously each year. While most industries are still recovering from 2020, Screenmobile’s model has been incredibly resilient to the challenges that paralyzed many other businesses, and that motivated us to purchase the Austin territory and continue growing with the brand,” says Nick Rosso. “Major cities throughout Texas are experiencing a surge of growth, attracting consumers and corporations alike to the area, and we’re thrilled for an opportunity to tap into that potential and begin serving residents of the vibrant Austin community.”

Screenmobile experienced continued success last year nationwide and statewide, with most local franchise owners reporting a 10 to 20% increase from 2019 to 2020. In addition to its expansion in Austin, the company currently has thriving locations in markets throughout the Lonestar State, including Dallas, Boerne, Humble–Spring and Round Rock. As the nation’s leading market for roll down screens, Texas’ increase in population density coupled with its lack of seasonality positions the state as a prime market for growth. With the Austin market officially sold out, the company is aggressively pursuing growth opportunities in key target markets, including Houston and San Antonio, offering Texans an opportunity to invest in a business model that has proven to be pandemic and recession resistant.

“Screenmobile is the first service brand concept of its kind, delivering a mobile, convenient experience that caters to a specific consumer need, and our role as an industry leader with virtually no competitors has been a driving force behind our nonstop growth. The success of our existing locations in Texas showcases why the market is a highly desirable region for prospective franchisees, and we’re thrilled to have an existing operator like Nick Rosso be a part of growing our footprint in Austin,” said Scott Walker, CEO of Screenmobile.

With more 139 franchise locations in 29 states, Screenmobile is the leading and largest mobile screen repair and installation franchise brand. Established in 1980, the company has created a niche segment within the service brand industry, providing extensive products, services and capabilities that can fulfill a wide-range of residential and commercial property needs. The company is currently seeking single and muti-unit operators to join in the brands expansion.

Senior Care Authority Acquires Nationally Recognized Program to Keep Seniors Safe

Tatyana Stemkovski2021-05-12T10:34:05-04:00May 12th, 2021|Tags: assisted living placement services, non-medical in-home care, Senior Care Authority, senior care franchise systems, Senior Placement and Elder Care Consulting|

Senior Placement and Elder Care Consulting Franchise Now Offering ‘Beyond Driving with Dignity’ Program.

PETALUMA, Calif. — Senior Care Authority, the nation’s premiere senior placement and eldercare consulting franchise, has acquired Beyond Driving with Dignity and is now the exclusive provider of the nationally recognized program.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), more than 20 older adults (65+) are killed and almost 700 are injured in traffic crashes every day. The Beyond Driving with Dignity training and certification program was designed to help senior drivers and their families work through the complicated issue of age-related diminishing driving skills.

“The Beyond Driving with Dignity self-assessment program was a natural fit for Senior Care Authority. It aligns perfectly with our mission to coach families and be their advocate when they are faced with tough care decisions,” said Frank Samson, founder and CEO of Senior Care Authority. “This program adds to our existing menu of core services dedicated to helping older adults, their families, and medical providers who are seeking professional resources for aging patients.”

Senior Care Authority’s local owners are comprehensively trained and certified advisors. They assist families in the overwhelming challenges associated with selecting the best options in assisted living, memory care, nursing care and other long-term care services. The 70-unit franchise, currently operating in 23 states across the United States, is equipping its franchisees with added training required to bring this program to clients. Thirty franchisees have already completed the training. The entire network is slated to be on-boarded and offering the program by Summer 2021.

The founder of Beyond Driving with Dignity, Matt Gurwell, saw the need for a program of this kind firsthand while serving as an Ohio state trooper. He created the program to help families navigate what can be a difficult and emotional conversation, and ultimately to reduce the number of unnecessary and avoidable death notices state troopers have to deliver.

“Not all seniors need to stop driving, but many families aren’t sure when or how to make that decision for their loved ones,” said Gurwell, “Our program allows families to remove the emotional aspect from the conversation and make a decision together, based on the facts. Part of the process is having a learning conversation with the senior versus a personal interview, which can often feel intrusive and put seniors on guard. We want a mutually-made decision with the senior.”

Beyond Driving with Dignity helps an older driver with diminishing skills make a smooth transition from the driver’s seat to the passenger seat. The program also ensures that the individual is able to maintain as much independence as possible.

Marcy Baskin, Managing Director of Senior Care Authority noted, “Senior Care Authority franchise owners are continually adding to their menu of services. With our franchise network, we are able to extend the reach of this much needed program at a national level. Furthermore, the program is congruent with our philosophy of compassion and empathy in all facets of senior care.”
