Quality Restaurant Ventures Inc. (OTC Pink Sheets: QRVI) reported today that its newest concept, Sobiks Cafes, has surpassed its initial first year sales and operational expectations.
This is the first announcement concerning the addition to QRVI's flagship brand, Sobiks Sub Shops, and provides QRVI with a new franchising product that requires less space than a traditional stand-alone restaurant.
"We've found a new restaurant franchising niche that we expect to aggressively promote," reported QRVI President Dan Patterson. Sobiks Cafes have been designed to be placed in downtown office buildings and suburban commercial centers with a minimum of 90% occupancy. There are currently three Sobiks Cafes with additional locations under construction and in negotiation.
Quality Restaurant Ventures Inc., along with its affiliate company, Ultimate Franchise Systems Inc. (OTC Pink Sheets: UFSM), identifies and prepares emerging restaurant concepts with high growth potential for transition to franchise opportunity businesses. The two companies first acquire significant interest in a franchise system, then consolidate and unify their legal, accounting, marketing and purchasing systems. This establishes a more significant infrastructure to achieve long-term growth and competitive strategies.
Ultimate Franchise Systems, Inc. currently has investments in approximately 600 franchised restaurants in 30 states throughout the United States. Quality Restaurant Ventures affiliates include Westshore Pizza, with over 50 locations, and Uncle Al's Famous Hot Dogs (OTC Pink Sheets: FFDG), with approximately 15 locations.
