Melting Pot

<a href="https://www.meltingpotfranchise.com/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=the-melting-pot-eyes-connecticut-to-continue-their-exponential-expansion-efforts-2722525" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">The Melting Pot</a>, the 94-unit fondue franchise, is continuing to make 2023 the year of the “Melting Pot Evolution” with newly announced plans to expand into Connecticut. With recent renovations embracing a more open dining room layout and a cozier, warmer atmosphere, the brand is looking to continue their growth efforts in locations where both the demand and environment are a natural fit for the popular franchise.&nbsp;While redesigning existing restaurants was the focus of the first quarter of 2023,&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/meltingpot">The Melting Pot</a> brand feels now is the right time to pivot to new builds in the right locations as expansion goals move forward.“Connecticut has such a storied history, rich in American tradition,” said&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/collin-benyo-1bb36a248/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=the-melting-pot-eyes-connecticut-to-continue-their-exponential-expansion-efforts-2722525" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Collin Benyo</a>, Franchise Growth Strategist for the brand. “Since The Melting Pot is a brand that can fit into many different types of physical locations, we find ourselves ready to build and become a real part of the community as opposed to standing out.”&nbsp;There is already interest building in Connecticut for franchise development, with at least two locations forecasted to be built in the coming year, with possible markets of focus including suburbs Frog Hollow and Parkville, and a potential more urban location like downtown Hartford all being considered.Connecticut landed on The Melting Pot’s expansion radar in part because of previous experience. A Melting Pot restaurant located in Darien closed in years past due to the franchisee family moving into a different stage of life, but demand for the fine dining experience associated with the brand never dissipated.&nbsp;&nbsp;“The market indicated there was an area of untapped guests who were willing to travel far to visit our other locations, like our White Plains, NY franchise,” said Benyo.&nbsp;This proved to The Melting Pot corporate headquarters that making Connecticut a part of their significant growth strategy made sense. Benyo plans to visit the state in May to explore the potential for other sites and meet with interested franchisees to ensure the ideal marriage of both are achieved.&nbsp;Overall, the brand is especially excited about bringing their cultured but comfortable, private but personal dining experience back to Connecticut. As “The Melting Pot Evolution” continues to spread across the states, existing locations are reporting significant revenue growth, with sites that have gone through the recent renovation remodel boasting a nearly 20% better return than locations who have yet to go through their official expansion face lift. For new franchisees, this is an auspicious predictor of franchise success and a profitable return on investment.&nbsp;&nbsp;To find out more information on costs to buy this franchise, please visit&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/meltingpot/info">https://1851franchise.com/meltingpot/info</a>
