Blaze Fast-Fire'd Pizza has opened location No. 300 - this one in Miami, Florida. The pivotal event comes just a couple of months after the brand clocked up six birthdays since its founding in 2012 with two California locations. Now with hundreds of stores, the brand is covering 42 states and five countries, a news release said.
In the coming year, the company is planning to open on average one new restaurant every five to six days — with expectations of opening its 500th location by 2021. To support its growth, the brand said that it will be adding 30 new franchise partners to its current group of 55 multiunit franchise developers.
"Now that our current franchise partners are established, we're excited to add the next wave of new franchisees to our family," Blaze International Division President and Chief Development Officer Carolyne Canady, said in the release. "We've just opened up a handful of territories and are inviting experienced multi-unit operators to get in touch with us to learn more about possible opportunities in their markets."
