PR and Comms Leader | Storyteller | Living the PR Dream Loud and Proud for GoTo Foods and Carvel, Cinnabon, Schlotzsky's, Moe's, Auntie Anne's, McAlister's & Jamba | Feeding People and Potential
We love feeding people AND their potential at GoTo Foods and this program with Auntie Anne's and Missouri Western State University is a perfect example of that. Our brand franchisees are entrepreneurs and are at the heart of everything we do. Love to see the growth of everyone's favorite pretzel!
Along with Missouri Western State University (MWSU) and Auntie Anne's franchisee, Steve Craig, Auntie Anne’s is giving college graduates the fantastic opportunity to own their own franchise. The Center for Franchise Development and the Applied Entrepreneurial Program has been incredibly successful, with a success rate of over 90% since its launch, showing our dedication to caring for people. This year, we're absolutely thrilled to have awarded a well-established Auntie Anne's franchise to Caleb Keling, an outstanding graduate from MWSU. Caleb's journey involved a rigorous mini-internship and a comprehensive business plan presentation, which truly showcased his suitability as a franchise owner. He's now joining a network of previous franchise recipients, who are more than willing to lend a hand to new entrepreneurs. Over the past 15 years, MWSU has played a pivotal role in helping 25 franchisees establish 56 franchises across the United States, resulting in over $34 million in annual sales. The most recent two Auntie Anne's recipients have achieved remarkable success, nearly doubling their sales and expanding their entrepreneurial ventures. We're incredibly excited to support Caleb on what we're sure will be a successful entrepreneurial journey— a huge congratulations to Caleb!
Love this !
Well done !
