Franchising is a great business model —&nbsp;it has allowed us to have nearly 100 locations across the country. But there are many we haven’t reached yet, so we have an opportunity for more growth.” Watch the full segment&nbsp;<a href="https://www.foxbusiness.com/video/6365172063112?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=fox-business-melting-pot-ceo-joins-coast-to-coast-2727998" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">here</a>.For more information on franchising with Melting Pot, visit&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/meltingpot/info">https://1851franchise.com/meltingpot/info</a>.
