Knuckies Franchise Company LLC has announced a new partnership with Walmart, the nation’s largest retailer, to open Knuckies Hoagies locations within select Walmart stores. Founded in 2019, Knuckies Hoagies opened its first location in Milton, GA, and has since been recognized on the 2023 QSR 40/40 list as one of the hottest 40 brands under 40 locations. This partnership will result in the execution of 14 Walmart leases across six states: Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Tennessee, Oklahoma, and Texas.
The partnership offers entrepreneurs the opportunity to benefit from exceptional economics, including a built-in customer base and prime locations. Franchisees can expect high demand for the hoagies, which are made with soft rolls and premium ingredients. Knuckies Hoagies is known for its creative menu offerings, including one of the top 5 cheesesteaks in Atlanta. Additionally, franchisees will have the advantage of a National License Agreement with Alumni Cookie Dough, allowing them to offer unique dessert options.
Todd Broaderick, Founder and CEO of Knuckies Franchise Company, stated, “We are using Knuckies Hoagies as our way of always striving to make a difference: one hoagie, one guest, one community at a time. This mission is at the core of everything we do at Knuckies Franchise Company, and we are excited to extend our reach to even more communities through this incredible partnership with Walmart.”
