Leading Family-Style Pizza Chain Proudly Named Alongside Numerous Prominent Brands
Newport Beach, CA (RestaurantNews.com) Mountain Mike’s Pizza, a leading family-style pizza chain for over 45 years, known for its legendary crispy, curly pepperonis, Mountain-sized pizzas, and dough made fresh daily has been recognized in Entrepreneur’s inaugural ranking of the Top Brands for Multi-Unit Owners. The ranking, which appears in the July/August issue of Entrepreneur magazine and on Entrepreneur.com, identifies the brands with the most appeal for prospective franchisees interested in multi-unit ownership as well as existing franchisees looking to expand their portfolios. Mountain Mike’s Pizza was ranked No. 40.
“This accolade from Entrepreneur as a Top Brand for Multi-Unit Owners is a testament to the commitment of our best-in-class franchisees, who relentlessly push Mountain Mike’s forward as tremendous brand ambassadors and talented entrepreneurs who share our vision for growth,” said Jim Metevier, Mountain Mike’s President and COO. “We are continuing to establish Mountain Mike’s Pizza as a premier brand in the ultra-competitive pizza industry, and being recognized as a great investment for franchisees looking to grow their portfolios further affirms our marketplace position.”
According to franchise research and advisory firm FRANdata, 53.2% of all franchise units operating in the U.S. last year were owned by multi-unit owners. To determine the top brands for multi-unit ownership, Entrepreneur asked franchisors a few relevant questions: Do they offer discounts to franchisees purchasing multiple units? What percentage of their franchisees own multiple units? What percentage of their brand’s total units are owned by multi-unit franchisees? What is the average number of units owned by each franchisee? And finally, do they only sell multiple units or master licenses? They also factored in each company’s Franchise 500 score, which is based on an analysis of more than 150 data points in the areas of costs and fees, size and growth, franchisee support, brand strength, and financial stability.
“Entrepreneur‘s lists reflect the state of the franchise industry – and there is perhaps no greater story than the power of the multi-unit franchisee,” says Jason Feifer, editor in chief of Entrepreneur magazine. “The industry is increasingly embracing them as motivated, knowledgeable, capable operators, and it’s no wonder that brands are now competing for these great multi-unit owners’ attention.”
