Mici Italian will open its first Texas store, in Frisco, in early July. The unit is owned and operated by franchisee Carlos Smith, who has plans to develop about a dozen locations in the Dallas-Ft. Worth metropolitan area, according to a press release.

"I saw the opportunity for growth with the company and decided to bring it to Dallas, where I think it's going to do extremely well," Smith said in the release. "We're looking to open our second location in late November or December of this year, and then our third one by July of 2023. Within the next five years, we hope to open up another 10 to 15."

"He is really jumping in with both feet and has an energy level and passion for taking care of people, whether that's employees or customers," Co-Founder Jeff Miceli said in the release. "We're over the moon to have him, and we're really excited to support him and take off from here."
