Add Papa Murphy’s Franchise To Your Franchise Portfolio

Why Expand Your Franchise Portfolio?

Many franchise owners like to add new licenses and locations within their “home” brand. That’s a good strategy for market penetration and additional revenue, to be sure, but it can also lead to negative outcomes if something unforeseen — such as a global pandemic — means a vast reduction in that particular brand’s viability.

The answer to that is a franchise portfolio consisting of several brands. A little variety goes a long way, allowing business owners to use the entire portfolio’s performance to expand strong brands, as well as shore up those that could be experiencing setbacks.

There are a few things to consider when building, or expanding, a portfolio. One proven strategy is to find a complementary brand. If you have a restaurant franchise, for instance, a nearby dessert business would allow more opportunities to grow wallet share from customers. On the other hand, if you are looking to grow outside your current franchise industry, investing in a new industry could broaden your future.

Why Add Papa Murphy’s to Your Franchise Portfolio

Whatever the case, it’s essential to create a franchise ecosystem with operational synergies, so that you’re not running back-office operations on very different systems.

Sure, the pizza market is competitive. That said, nobody’s doing what Papa Murphy’s has pioneered.
