Gondolier Italian Restaurant and Pizza Opportunity
Here’s an undiscovered franchise: Gondolier Italian Restaurant and Pizza Franchise. According to company information:
“Mr. Bill Sioutis founded Gondolier Italian Restaurant and Pizza in Cleveland, Tennessee in 1974. Back then, it was a place where families could enjoy a menu full of variety, have fun and know that the value they received was backed by our guarantee of quality and freshness. That tradition continues today! Over the past 25 years, the concept has been carefully and deliberately developed into the successful franchise opportunity it is today. As of June 1999, we operate six corporate and nine franchise stores as well as one corporate store under the “Portofino” brand. With locations in Florida, Georgia and Tennessee, our concept is poised to explode in the marketplace.
“Welcome to Gondolier Italian Restaurant and Pizza. Gondolier Franchise Systems, Inc., is the franchisor of the Gondolier Italian Restaurant and Pizza concept. We are an unprecedented entity in the casual dining foodservice industry offering more than 50 menu items above and beyond pizza. From our selection of salads, oven baked subs, pita wraps, calzones, strombolies, Italian entrees, and white or red pizza, customers enjoy our delicious food, often times per week.
“Always something different, always something good, a fresh Italian dining experience in your neighborhood.
“Our system offers you the opportunity to provide your customers with fresh, home-style, neighborhood cooking ???at affordable prices??? served in a fun atmosphere, while you build your business.

This type of operation comfortably serves suburban locations and business centers.

“The option of selecting the appropriate restaurant type, working closely with trained professionals, using proven policies and procedures, and offering a tasty and varied menu, all contribute toward making this an exciting and rewarding franchise opportunity in the new millennium.”

BlackJack Pizza Franchise
July 26, 2008 by seankelly · Comments Off
Here’s an undiscovered pizza franchise:?? Blackjack Pizza
According to the company, Blackjack Pizza was founded in 1983 by Vince Schmuhl. After working several years for Dominos Pizza, the founder felt that there was plenty of room for competitors in the fast growing pizza delivery business. At that time, Dominos Pizza was the only major player in the pizza delivery business in the Rocky Mountain region and he felt that customers would really appreciate an alternative to Dominos Pizza.
The first Blackjack Pizza store was opened on June 29, 1983 in Federal Heights, CO. The second store opened in Greeley, CO in February of 1984. Vince continued to open new stores, mainly in the Denver Metro Area. By 1986, there were six corporate owned stores and one franchisee in operation.
In 1988, Blackjack officially became a franchisor using the concept of an owner/operator franchisee at each store location. Several corporate stores were sold to franchisees, and other franchisees were added to the system through conversions of independent operators who saw the value in being part of Blackjack Pizza. We have continued to add franchise outlets to the system under a policy of slow, controlled growth. Today there are 45 stores in operation in four states.
What made Blackjack Pizza think they could compete with national chains? It’s been said that if you don’t have a competitive advantage ??? a compelling reason for customers to call you rather than your competitor ??? then you should not compete. “Dominos Pizza has built its business on fast service. Almost everything they do has one purpose in mind; to get the pizza to the customer as quickly as possible. The 30 minute guarantee was their trademark. We knew we would have to match the 30 minute service standard set by Dominos if we wanted to have any chance at all of surviving in this business. We began by designing our system to provide our customers with the quickest possible delivery service.”
“With delivery times about the same, why would customers call Blackjack Pizza instead of Dominos? Two reasons: 1 - our pizza tastes better (better quality) and 2 - our pizza is a better value (it costs less). One of our earliest advertising tag lines was “Better Pizza, Better Price” and that still holds true today.”

Undiscovered Franchise: Vehicle Tracking Solutions (VTS) Franchise Opportunity
April 6, 2008 by seankelly · Comments Off
(UndiscoveredFranchises.com) Here’s an uncommon franchise opportunity far away from the expected world of burgers and paper hats: a Vehicle Tracking Solutions franchise.
Based in NY, VTS just sold their first franchise in Texas. We thought they had a different way of dealing with car thieves in Texas:
About the Vehicle Tracking Solutions franchise: Vehicle Tracking Solutions is a Long Island based company, and is a leading provider of Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL) devices and fleet management solutions. VTS tracks nearly 10,000 vehicles 24 hours a day for clients in 32 states. Entering its sixth year of operation, VTS has experienced double-digit growth over the past four years. VTS operates offices in New York and New Hampshire, and is the only company in the AVL industry to offer franchise opportunities.
Vehicle Tracking Solutions (VTS) Opens first franchise
Vehicle Tracking Solutions (VTS), a New York based fleet management provider, has announced the signing of its first franchisee Mark Repella of Austin, Texas. Mark will develop the VTS brand in the Austin and San Antonio markets.
“After looking at many different business opportunities and franchise offerings, I decided to go with VTS,” Mark Repella explained. “They have a great product and their commitment to their customers is second to none.”
John M. Cunningham Jr. founded VTS six years ago, and has watched the company grow exponentially during that time. He stated, “I am very excited to welcome Mark to the VTS franchise network. With the fleet management industry offering such tremendous potential, I am confident that Mark will soon be operating a thriving franchise. His B2B sales experience is a great asset for Vehicle Tracking Solutions, and we are happy to welcome him onboard.”
The need for fleet management systems has grown tremendously in the past years. A recent study of the fleet tracking industry found that only 10% of the 20 million business vehicles in the United States are equipped with fleet tracking systems, and this number is expected to grow. In addition, industry sources report that by 2010, there will be 17 million GPS fleet management subscribers generating more than $2.5 billion in revenue in the fleet tracking industry. These findings ensure that VTS franchisees will have access to the fastest growing market in the B2B industry.
The VTS franchise is based upon years of experience and success in the fleet tracking industry and was designed to enable each VTS franchisee to focus on B2B marketing and sales. VTS franchisees have the choice of operating from a home based office or a business office. There are no royalty fees for VTS franchisees, and recurring revenue is earned for each sale made by the franchisee.
