24 Hour Self Service Convenience Strip Centers Expanding Nationwide
Over the past 36 months Get & Go Express has designed, developed, patented and tested what some say could be the #1 national franchise in the years to come.
Springfield, IL (PRWEB) March 24, 2006 -- Get & Go Express was an instant success when it opened September 2004 in Springfield, Illinois. It is the brainchild of Jeffrey A. Parsons, the inventor of the unique portable structure that houses up to 34 vending machines offering soda, candy, chips, other snacks, hot and cold food, and merchandise.
Following is the scoop on Get & Go Express in the words of Founder and CEO Jeff Parsons: “We have had a lot of interest from entrepreneurs interested in operating/owning their own Get & Go Express. This unique business model is a natural for franchising. The business can be operated 24 hours a day 365 days a year without employees. The owners work only a few hours a week to service, clean, and fill the machines. Our patented buildings are fully portable and do not require permanent anchoring. This allows us to utilize highly visible commercial lots that may not be available to new construction. Additionally, if a location does not prove to be profitable the business can be relocated with minimal cost.
“Throughout Europe and Japan clusters of vending machines are quite common. Get & Go Express is the first of its kind in the United States. We are experiencing from 1,000 to 1,200 vends per day at our test locations, 90% of which are from drive in traffic.”
This April Get & Go Express will open four locations in West Central Florida. These will be the first of many Get & Go Express locations opening throughout the United States.
The company Get & Go Express, Inc. is also seeking additional investors to help fund their nationwide expansion. For now the company will use their 30,000 facility located in Springfield, IL to manufacture and distribute their patented vending kiosks and equipment. However, plans are in the works to add distribution points on the east and west coasts in the near future.
A turnkey Get & Go Express franchise complete with structure, vending equipment, site selection, set-up, on-site training, and on going support starts at about $75,000 but this can be as much as $275,000 depending on options like type and quantity of vending machines, and size of structure.
