Brixx Wood Fired Pizza plans to open seven locations across the Southeast over the next year.

The growth comes a year after the Charlotte-based company launched a franchise program to expand the chain.

“The concept is 10 years old now,” says Jeff Van Dyke, Brixx managing partner. “We feel like we’ve got things down now and are ready to grow the brand.”

Company-owned locations scheduled to open in the next year are in Asheville, Raleigh, Cary and Nashville, Tenn. A franchisee opened a Columbia, S.C., location about three weeks ago. Other franchise restaurants set to open in the next year are in Wilmington, Winston-Salem and Knoxville, Tenn. The company currently has 11 locations. The first Brixx opened in Dilworth in 1998.

New Staffing Franchise

<--adsense-->A new I.T. Staffing franchise is emerging from Knoxville, TN. According to the Knoxville News Sentinel:

“Staff I.T., an information technology recruiting and staffing firm with headquarters in Oak Ridge, is announcing today a major shift in operations that includes a name change and expansion through franchising.

“The 10-year-old company, which now will be called RecruitWise, is looking to franchise into 27 cities within a 450-mile radius of Knoxville over the next decade.

“Founder and President Glenn Zahn said RecruitWise will target cities that are Knoxville’s size or larger.

“Zahn said there is a growing need for information technology recruitment and staffing services as companies look to fill more tech-based positions.

He said as the company evaluated expansion options, the decision to franchise emerged as the best fit. He also said the decision to change names was made because Staff I.T. does not qualify for a trademark but RecruitWise does and the firm was needing to trademark its identity.”

New Salon Franchise

The trend in the salon rental industry is now shifting toward the salon suite concept. There’s a new salon franchise hoping to capitalize on that trend: Salons by JC.

Salons by JC provides high-end retail space for beauty and wellness practitioners. The original Salon by JC opened in 1998. Other salons followed and there are now a total of 6 operating Salons by JC in the Arlington, Dallas, and San Antonio areas and Salons by JC is projecting 12 franchisees over the next 12 months.

The Salons by JC franchise program incorporates site selection, facility development, inventory guidance, and operational instruction into your business vision. Some of the advantages appear to be no inventory, low labor costs (only 1-2 employees needed to start your business) and the ability for the franchisee to operate as an absentee owner.
