Bryan and Caleb Lewis, the brothers who own Press Waffle Co., have signed an agreement with Kyle Van de Ven and Kevin Koskovich to open a unit in July inside Union Hall, an 18,000-square-foot food hall in downtown Waco, Texas.
"We have known the Press guys for a number of years now and have followed their journey from food truck to food hall to their national appearance on Shark Tank," Van de Ven said. "We have always loved the business and especially the product, so when the opportunity came up for us to partner with them, it was really a no brainer. We are excited to open in Union Hall and hopefully more to come!"
In addition to being the first Dallas-based restaurant to be funded on Shark Tank, Press Waffle Co. is one of only a handful of businesses that Shark Barbara Corcoran has invested in through the show.
Press is now seeking other franchise partners to help them expand the brand to add to its three units.
