<div style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">&quot;We&#39;re looking for a small business owner to be the &#39;pretzel mayor&#39; of their town,&quot; Tom Monaghan, chief development officer of Philly Pretzel Factory, told the Daily Chronicle reporter.</div>

<div style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">&nbsp;</div>

<div style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">Because the job requires selling products wholesale to places like schools, hospitals and nursing homes - the job is best fit for someone who is community-minded.</div>

<div style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">The brand has its sights set on the DeKalb Walmart as a potential spot in the market.</div>

<div style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">&nbsp;</div>

<div style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">&quot;We have 31 in-store locations open already,&quot; Tom told the reporter. &quot;It allows us to take advantage of Walmart&#39;s existing customer base.&quot;</div>

<div style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">&nbsp;</div>

<div style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">The large DeKalb population in addition to being home to Northern Illinois University are both a huge part of the appeal for the brand.</div>
