Clean Eatz Foundation to Freeze Out Childhood Obesity with National Campaign

2023-09-04T12:10:33-04:00September 4th, 2023|Tags: , , , , |

Health Food Franchise Will Donate September Proceeds for Limited-Time Smoothie. 

WILMINGTON, N.C. — Clean Eatz, one of the country’s fastest-growing health food restaurant and online meal plan franchises, recently launched the Clean Eatz Foundation, with a focus on combatting childhood obesity. The initiative is designed to raise awareness and money toward tackling the growing epidemic. And to officially kick off that mission, Clean Eatz cafes nationwide will be featuring a new limited-time smoothie, Go Bananaz, with a portion of September proceeds going to support the Clean Eatz Foundation.

“We Change Livez. It’s our rally cry,” said Evonne Varady, Clean Eatz founder and Co-owner. “This mission is representative of the people behind our brand to a core, as well as the energy that drives our entire franchise concept. More and more, we see a need to extend this focus to some of the youngest members of our Clean Eatz communities – kids. That’s realization is where this campaign first took root.”

Money raised through Clean Eatz Foundation campaigns, like the Go Bananaz Smoothie Drive, is earmarked for positive impact. This includes funding children’s tuition for wellness camps, spearheading scholarships for individuals entering the physical fitness fields, and more.

“We’re excited to honor National Childhood Obesity Awareness Month with this inaugural campaign,” Varady said. “For us, the smoothie drive is a fun way to get people engaged in a very serious topic – the wellbeing of our future generations. It’s the beginning of a much larger discussion, one that we’ll be helping drive through our Foundation in the coming years.”

2023-08-29T10:05:01-04:00August 29th, 2023|Tags: , , |

Temporary Wall Systems continues its expansion into New Jersey with a Meadowlands location

2023-08-29T09:45:46-04:00August 29th, 2023|Tags: , , , |

Owner to help area contractors provide a safe and sustainable temporary wall system. 

MEADOWLANDS, N.J. — Temporary Wall Systems (TWS), the first full-service, temporary containment wall provider in the United States, will open a new location in The Meadowlands on Labor Day – its third venue in New Jersey.

Owner Ken Papile said TWS’s turn-key approach will help local businesses solve the problem of additional waste that is created when disposable temporary walls are built to protect people from areas of construction and renovation. Most contractors usually construct these walls from drywall and other permanent materials that have to be tossed into landfills once the wall comes down after renovations.

“Temporary Wall Systems has created a rentable wall that is easy to install and produces little to no waste when it’s taken down,” he said. “I love that our rentable containment walls are a fast and reliable solution to protect people from the dust, noise and demolition during a renovation or construction project.”

Papile is a New York area native and graduate of Iona University in New Rochelle, New York. Prior to opening Temporary Wall Systems Meadowlands, he spent years as a sales executive for several large clothing and apparel distributors.

In addition to his corporate positions, Papile has also owned and operated a few businesses, including a company that renovates and rehabilitates older homes for resale. He said that when he researched TWS, he became impressed with its franchise model and knew the idea of rentable, reusable walls was a solid investment.

“The TWS system is a win-win for the contractor and the customer,” he said. “It’s more cost effective for the contractor and eliminates the need to fill up a landfill with permanent building materials that were only used for a temporary purpose.”

Papile said he also wants to create a long-term business in the Meadowlands area that he can keep in the family for years to come. He and his wife, Elissa, have three children: Giuliana, 9, Vienna, 7 and Milo, 3.

“I love this area because you can get pretty much anything you want in New Jersey,” he said. “There are beachy areas along the New Jersey shore, and there are rural areas, suburban areas and, of course, you can enjoy being close to New York City. It’s a great place to live, work and open a business.”

TWS is part of HomeFront Brands, a family of emerging, franchised residential and commercial property service brands that offers integrated technology, data support, lead generation, business intelligence systems and training to its partners.

Temporary Wall Systems South Jersey Provides Contractor and Facility-Friendly Containment Systems for Renovation and Construction Projects

2023-08-28T11:13:33-04:00August 28th, 2023|Tags: , , , |

Local owner will host a grand opening event for the new location at a facility management association golf tournament on Sept. 6. 

ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. — Temporary Wall Systems (TWS), the first full-service, temporary containment wall provider in the United States, will highlight its latest location in South Jersey at an International Facility Management Association (IFMA) annual golf outing at Running Deer Golf Club in Pittsgrove, New Jersey on Sept. 6.

Temporary Wall Systems South Jersey is an official sponsor of the golf event and local owner Sam Adler said he hopes to get the word out about the new location to area facilities managers and general contractors who attend the event.

Adler said he believes that the growth in the number of commercial renovations and construction projects in the South Jersey area provides a natural customer base for the temporary and reusable containment system his TWS location provides.

“When I was looking for investment opportunities, I saw the Temporary Wall Systems franchise and fell in love with the model,” he said. “During my research, I validated that a rental model for hard, modular temporary walls wasn’t a ‘nice to have’ option, but a ‘need to have’ option,” he said. “There is a great demand in this area for a temporary hard wall containment solution that is not only able to contain construction dust, noise and foot traffic, but is aesthetically pleasing and environmentally sustainable. Because the TWS walls are refreshed and reused, literally tons of scrap is prevented from going into our landfills.”

Adler has worked in executive leadership positions for the majority of his entire professional life, and he is confident that his background in leading marketing teams and raising brand awareness will help him expand his company.

“There are a lot of health care facilities, labs, hotels, casinos, office spaces, universities and many other commercial spaces in this area that will want the containment these walls provide as they begin remodeling projects,” he said. “Contractors are relieved to have a containment subcontractor option in the area. Building temporary containment from scratch can be expensive, unreliable and wasteful. Facility managers are thrilled when they see the aesthetic quality of TWS walls, how permanent they look, and how we help them meet their sustainability mandates.”

Adler pointed out that the reusable walls are fire rated, and also meet the Infection Control Risk Assessment (ICRA) Best Practices in Health Care Construction, so they will be most welcome in protecting workers, staff and patients in hospitals and other healthcare facilities.

He and his wife, Fabienne, expect that his TWS location will provide local employment and also be able to give back to his community through a variety of charitable associations.

 MIDDLESEX COUNTY, N.J.  — Capital Tacos, the small-town taco shop turned nationally-acclaimed Tex-Mex restaurant franchise, is taking the taste of Tex-Mex #DoneRight to Middlesex County after having secured the brand’s first-ever franchise agreement for the state of New Jersey as it continues its rapid expansion into new markets across the country.

Parth and Yash Patel, two New Jersey natives responsible for bringing this latest franchise deal to market, are brothers, and share a family background steeped in entrepreneurship that spans a multitude of industries. The pair saw an opportunity to introduce an innovative and award-winning take on Tex-Mex cuisine that simply doesn’t exist in their region.

They hope to introduce additional Capital Tacos locations throughout the surrounding communities and beyond once the public has had the opportunity to familiarize itself with the flavor and creativity that have made the brand the fan-favorite concept it is today.

“Our current goal is to find the right home for Capital Tacos in New Jersey,” Parth shared. “Although we haven’t made any final decisions, we’re particularly drawn to real estate options in Middlesex County. We’re hopeful we can find the proper real estate and begin the buildout process as quickly as possible to stay on track for an opening in the early months of 2024.”

Since launching its franchise program in early 2022, Capital Tacos has expanded far beyond its Tampa homebase, with brick-and-mortar restaurants open or under development in Atlanta, Charlotte, Denver, Tulsa, New Jersey, and markets throughout Florida, many of which have opened just this summer.

“We couldn’t be more excited to expand Capital Tacos into the Northeast. More specifically, into the Middlesex County area,” said Josh Luger, Co-founder of Capital Tacos. “Both Yash and Parth will make excellent additions to our franchise family, and their hope to continue building the brand’s footprint in the state is core to the fabric of making our one-of-a-kind flavors and menu available to the masses.”

Capital Tacos is currently seeking single-unit and multi-unit franchisees interested in new career opportunities or those looking to diversify their current portfolios.
