Listen to Larks Entertainment's CEO Curt Skallerup speak with Sam Oches on Nation's Restaurant News Take-Away podcast to learn more about EATERTAINMENT and everything we are doing to be the next big franchise concept! #LarksEntertainment #NRN #eatertainment #podcast
The eatertainment category is exploding, but the sheer size of these properties and the investment they require make it challenging to secure franchisees and real estate. Larks Entertainment is setting out to change that with a "modular franchise" model that essentially lets franchisees choose their own adventure in building out an eatertainment concept. I think this is a really fascinating idea: Choose from among several different experiences — i.e. shuffleboard, mini-golf, obstacle course — and assemble your business according to your budget and available real estate. This should help more mom-and-pop franchisees jump into the space, and it will help bring eatertainment to smaller markets. Larks founder/CEO Curt Skallerup joined me on this week's episode of Take-Away to talk about the latest eatertainment wave, how it can overcome growth limitations, and how value will be key to driving guest frequency.
