Forza Development ®️

@Dirtdog Our VP of construction is a savage. Glad he’s on our squad! Best in the biz!

I bet you forgot about our VP of Construction. Well good news he got back to his home yesterday - a 17 day Roadie! Thousands of miles Dozens of site walks Our team is full of rabid wild dogs. We will stop at nothing to get drive thru’s built. Whatever it takes 

@Dirtdog @7BrewCoffee Let’s get it uso! Excited to get 300 stores done!!

We built 11 Starbucks locations Then we built 13 Dutch Bros locations And now we are “all in” on @7BrewCoffee with the intent to build 300 stores over the next 6 years.

Imagine the chaos. It’s Sunday, you are a property manager and you get a call that the power is out on a building that has 3 restaurant tenants. Our team didn’t panic, they locked in and solved the problem. In a short 47 hours we went from a fried breaker to power back on.

@Dirtdog @DonovanBuilds The Polynesian pipeline isn’t just for football only 😂

@DonovanBuilds Call @FZDevelop Polynesian Mafia would take care of this more effective than the police

Someone broke into one of my Houston 4plexes under construction recently Thousands of dollars worth of damage for what I assume to be tens of dollars worth of copper Quick work by HPD caught him and they asked if I wanted to press charges What would you do?

@Dirtdog Ha!

I’ve been walking around Fashion Island Mall this afternoon. It’s so heart warming. So many older guys brought their nieces to the mall today. Spread love everyone.

@Dirtdog @Dirtdog making things happen! We appreciate the hard work and hustle!

Feeling like a good site tour day Anyone else live to be fueled by stale hotel coffee and good corners?

Peter Cancro is a BEAST. It was announced this week that after selling Jersey Mikes for $8 B to Blackstone that Peter was pursuing a 400 store development agreement in the UK and Ireland as a franchisee!! Who exits in the B’s and chooses to sign up as a franchisee?? 🤯🤯

Necessity is the Mother of Invention There are no McDonald’s in Iceland. During the Great Financial Crisis Iceland had massive financial troubles as a country. That caused their Krona Dollars to tank. The local franchisee Jon Ogmundsson was paying big $$ for corporate required menu items. For example a kilo of onions from Germany was equivalent to the cost of a good bottle of whiskey. He closed the 3 locations as McDonald’s and re-opened them as Metro’s. Today there are 3 Metro’s operating in Iceland and are all located in Reykjavik. The restaurants and menu have been adapted to more local ingredients and with an Iceland flare on the flavor profiles. McDonald’s has yet to return to Iceland. There are other franchised chains here such as Domino’s & KFC but those concepts source most of their ingredients locally. What are you ordering first?

It's a no brainer to subscribe to my newsletter, because at least 50% of the articles are written by real pros from my office. This morning Chloe dropped truth bombs about using personal branding to grow in CRE. Link 👇
