Muscle Maker's Pokemoto Division Enters New Jersey - New Hoboken Franchise Agreement Signed

Pokemoto Now Has 32 New Franchise Agreements Inked 

LEAGUE CITY, TX - (NewMediaWire) - March 23, 2022 - Muscle Maker, Inc. (Nasdaq: GRIL), the parent company of Muscle Maker Grill restaurants, Pokemoto Hawaiian Poke and SuperFit Foods meal prep, today announced the signing of a new Pokemoto franchise agreement for the Hoboken, New Jersey area.  This new franchise agreement marks the first entry for Pokemoto into the New Jersey market. 

Pokemoto has now signed 32 new franchise agreements since November 2021 and continues to focus its growth strategy on franchising while also opening Company owned locations in select markets.

The Pokemoto franchise model requires an initial franchise fee of $25,000, per unit, when the agreement is signed while also providing 6% of net sales as an ongoing monthly royalty rate once each location is opened.  The Company does allow, in certain instances, for discounted fees for multi-unit or special agreements.

Michael Roper, CEO of Pokemoto, commented, “while it’s exciting to sign new franchise agreements and expand into new states, it’s even more exciting to get them opened.  We currently have 6 franchise locations and 2 additional Company owned locations under construction and multiple LOIs for leases being negotiated.  Once opened, Pokemoto will have locations operating across Connecticut, Massachusetts, New York, Rhode Island, Virginia, Maryland, Mississippi, Florida and now New Jersey.”

Roper continued, “Hoboken is a millennial and Gen Z focused community and home to a large population of young professionals.  It also has Stevens Institute of Technology with approximately 8,000 students.  Universities are a key demographic for our locations.  Any time you combine a densely populated area with young professionals, families and university students you have a potentially great location.”

Hoboken is known as the “Hidden Gem” due to its location of about 10 miles outside New York City. The area was chosen as one of Apartment Therapy’s “coolest suburbs” in 2019.
