The powerhouse entrepreneurial couple have nearly three decades of experience under their belt as the owners and operators of multiple Nebraska-based Papa John's franchise locations. Now, fueled by a personal passion to give back to their community, the Posts have set their sights to a new industry — pet nutrition. And who better to partner with than&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/petwants?utm_source=1851franchise.com&amp;utm_medium=article&amp;utm_campaign=mother-daughter-team-forge-strong-bonds-and-business-success-in-north-carolina-with-pet-wants-2723619">Pet Wants</a>, the only national provider of pet food freshly delivered to customers and one of the fastest-growing pet food franchise concepts.<h2>From Pizza to Pets&nbsp;</h2>The Posts came onboard with Papa John’s over 25 years ago, with Troy starting out as a restaurant manager and working his way up from operating partner to multi-unit franchise owner. Jennifer was also by his side as a business partner throughout the journey, working as an owner and administrator within the couple’s multi-unit restaurant group.&nbsp;"It was a phenomenal journey,” said Troy. “But we wanted a change — something different. Right away, the pet sector was where our hearts were pointing.”&nbsp;Last year, the Posts officially sold their portfolio of Papa John’s territories, which included 11 locations overall throughout Nebraska.&nbsp;<h2>A Community-Driven Mission Fueled by a Personal Loss</h2>Troy and Jennifer, who have been married for 28 years and have raised three children, are dedicated pet parents. As the Posts started researching brands in the pet food space,&nbsp;<a href="https://petwantsfranchise.com/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=why-these-multi-unit-pizza-franchisees-are-pivoting-to-pet-nutrition-with-pet-wants-2724138" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Pet Wants</a> was a name that stood out to them, both as consumers and as prospective franchise owners.&nbsp; “Our conviction was confirmed when we ordered some of their food for our dogs — they loved it and their skin improved dramatically too,” said Troy. “Their offerings are probably some of the best food out there.”In addition to the couple's love for their pets and a longing to offer better nutrition to the animal community, it was a personal and tragic experience that solidified their decision to take the leap into&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/petwants/why-pet-wants-is-winning-best-in-show-in-the-booming-pet-food-industry-2720462#franchisor">the pet industry</a>."We lost our beloved dog, Sadie, recently,” said Jennifer. “It was a turning point that really pushed us towards the pet business. Many people don’t realize how vitally important health and nutrition is for their pets. I genuinely believe that if we had known about Pet Wants food back then, Sadie might still be with us."Now, in addition to a meaningful community offering, the Posts see a significant&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/petwants/how-pet-wants-is-changing-the-pet-food-industry-with-nutrition-2719630#franchisor">business opportunity</a> in Pet Wants, planning to open three retail locations within the next five years in their area of Lincoln.&nbsp;"The costs are relatively lower compared to a lot of other franchise concepts," Troy said. "And there isn't a one-size-fits-all blueprint. That’s refreshing."Echoing Troy's sentiments, Jennifer emphasized the uniqueness of the Pet Wants model. "You can tailor it according to the location,” she said. “It's not a rigid model, allowing franchisees to focus on&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/petwants/health-conscious-pet-food-brand-educates-owners-nationwide-on-holistic-approach-to-animal-health-and-wellness-2718966#franchisor">community needs</a>. There's such a significant need for what Pet Wants offers; I truly think the products will sell themselves."<h2>Expansion Opportunities on the Horizon</h2>Looking ahead, Troy says Pet Wants will certainly be a new adventure coming from the pizza world, but many of the couple’s core franchising principles have stayed the same.&nbsp;“You have to be passionate in what you are selling — that is the only way you can expand to multiple units and be successful,” said Troy. “That is why we are excited to see where the future leads and we know it will be a great fit. We're thrilled to be a part of the Pet Wants family. This is just the beginning.”Pet Wants seeks experienced and passionate franchisees like the Posts in markets across the U.S., targeting Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Kansas, Missouri, Idaho, Texas and Arizona.
