Washington, NC was recently named by QSR Magazine as one of the top small markets for restaurant growth.&nbsp; 
 
According to the Washington Daily News, brands such as <a href="http://phillypretzelfactory.com/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=washington-daily-news-franchises-eye-washington-nc-for-expansion-10557" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Philly Pretzel Factory</a> see the market as attractive for development due to the local demographic. 
 
&quot;You&#39;ve got a great combination, and it seemingly looks like it&#39;s young families with kids and retirees that are moving down from the north because of the standard of living you&#39;ve created,&quot;&nbsp;Philly&nbsp;Pretzel&nbsp;Factory Chief Development Officer&nbsp;Tom&nbsp;Monaghan told the Washington Daily News.&nbsp; 
 
Brands such as <a href="http://yourpie.com/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=washington-daily-news-franchises-eye-washington-nc-for-expansion-10557" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Your Pie</a> see the market as attractive for development due to the local demographic. 
 
&quot;Typically we see white collar workers for lunch who want a good lunch that they can get in and out of quickly, but we also want to be accessible to families and folks who typically come see us for dinner,&quot;&nbsp;Your Pie VP of Development&nbsp;Ken&nbsp;Caldwell told the Washington Daily News. &quot;We target markets across the country that we feel like would be good places for our brand.&quot; 
 
Philly Pretzel Factory often sees smaller markets in close proximity to slightly larger ones, such as Washington, as ideal for growth - specifically for the in-store model partnership with Wal-Mart.
