MOD Pizza’s new owner, Elite Restaurant Group, as part of their strategic growth and restructuring initiative, have engaged National Franchise Sales (NFS) to lead a comprehensive refranchising effort of their locations nationwide.
The new ownership group, Elite Restaurant Group (ERG) led by Michael Nakhleh is comprised of experienced investors and operators in the restaurant and hospitality industry. ERG is committed to enhancing MOD Pizza’s operations, expanding its footprint, and elevating the customer experience. The decision to partner with National Franchise Sales was driven by NFS’s extensive track record in successfully managing franchise resales and acquisitions, and their deep understanding of the franchise restaurant market.
“NFS’s expertise in refranchising, asset recovery reorganization, and franchise sales makes them the ideal partner to help us optimize MOD Pizza’s market presence and operational efficiency,” Nakhleh said. “We are confident that their strategic approach will be instrumental in identifying the right franchise partners to grow the MOD Pizza brand.”
As part of the refranchising initiative, NFS will employ its comprehensive scope of services to ensure seamless transitions for new franchisees. This will include franchisor and lease approvals, financial consulting, and managing the transaction process throughout the process.
