Leading Pizza franchise, Papa John’s, has announced it has opened in Tamworth. Former chip shop owner, Munish Mehta now runs the new franchised outlet in the West Midlands, employing 20 people.
“After 18 years running the chip shop it was time for a change,” explains Munish Mehta. “I looked at a few food franchises but Papa John’s stood out because it is a rapidly growing business and there is plenty of opportunity to expand.
“I am also in no-doubt that the product is better than the competition and since opening sales have been great,” continues Munish. “We are planning plenty of promotion over the coming months and it is the marketing part of the business I particularly enjoy. You need to be coming up with great ideas and allocating budget to marketing to make it really work and I’m looking forward to growing sales further in the future.”
Anthony Round, business development manager, Papa John’s comments: “We are delighted to welcome Munish as a new franchisee and wish him every success in taking Papa John’s to Tamworth! For other potential franchisees looking to following Munish’s footsteps we are currently offering some special incentive deals: For new openings in Wales, The Midlands, North East, The North West and Scotland we are offering a royalty break for stores opening before the end of 2014.
