As a PR, digital marketing and content development agency that partners with some of the best in the franchise industry, we’re taking a look at five entrepreneurial leaders of franchise brands. From a quick service restaurant (QSR) concept to a party bus that takes transportation to a new level, we’re excited to put these five Black-owned businesses on your radar – if they aren’t already.
This grooming experience for men is big, bold and “the first luxury grooming shop for guys.” Hammer and Nails Grooming was founded by screenwriter Michael Elliot in 2013 and grew quickly. Offering more than just simple haircuts and quick pedicures, this relaxed environment offers top-tier grooming and therapeutic services, such as beard grooming, luxury haircut experiences, premium manicures and pedicures, and so much more. Now with locations in markets across the country, from California to Connecticut, and Texas to Florida, this is a one-of-a-kind brand experience you don’t want to miss. The upscale business continues to expand through franchising, so if you’re looking to change the men’s grooming game, this opportunity might be for you.
Founded by brothers Brian and Greg Morton, Just Turkey Grill is a fast-growing all-turkey based BBQ franchise originating on the South side of Chicago. The brothers opened the chain in 2007 with a focus on lean turkey-centric menu items, including their signature world-famous BBQ Turkey Tips along with other favorites, such as the Turkey Leg, a variety of turkey burgers, turkey tacos and so much more. It’s especially ideal for those who don’t consume pork or beef, and is a delicious, healthy alternative for everyone. Not only is Just Turkey Grill delivering on healthy options and decadent taste, but they’re on a mission to provide jobs to support underserved communities. Enjoy a delicious meal in one of their fun locations, order to-go, cater an event or learn more about franchising opportunities here.
GoGo Party Bus founder Lenecia (Necee) Cooper is in the driver's seat, propelling her business to success with a fleet of six party buses that are far from your ordinary limo. Launched in 2011, GoGo Party Bus was an instant success. Equipped with full audio and video systems, all of their party buses include two TVs, bar areas, LED lighting, a karaoke machine and more for the ultimate entertainment experience for people of all ages. As the largest party bus company, it launched in Atlanta and has grown into franchises in Orlando, Miami, and soon-to-be more with their enticing low-startup franchise opportunities.
