Successful Retail Optical Concept Sees Influx of New Investors Alongside Current Franchisees Investing in More Units.

PALM SPRINGS, Fla. — My Eyelab, a retail brand of Now Optics, announced today it has signed multiple agreements which will bring four new franchise stores to Flint, MI; Chattanooga, TN; Greenville, TX; and Newport News, VA. Growth in the coming months will be fueled by two new investor duos joining the brand: Piyush Anam and Hetal Gandhi who are opening a new store in Michigan; and Ibrahim and Tenin Sangare who are opening a store in Texas. New store deals were also inked by current franchisees Sadiq and Karim Notta, along with Forrest and Brandon Hull, who are expanding their number of units.

The franchise agreements will bring four new locations to four states and were signed Q4 2022 and Q1 2023. The new stores will feature an experience focused on convenience and ease with a contemporary design that highlights the latest technology – offering stylish glasses at an affordable price and an experience that makes shopping for prescription eyewear fun and easy.

“We are happy to see new investors joining and energizing our brand, as well as our present partners expanding their business to open new stores,” said Daniel Stanton, CEO of Now Optics. “To see both new and current franchisees growing the company during an unpredictable economy is a testament to this retail concept’s great unit economics, low start-up costs and the brand’s investment in offering consumers a wide array of affordable eyewear products, accessories and telehealth services.”
