December 05, 2016 // Franchising.com // DALLAS - The Gents Place, the next level in men’s grooming and lifestyle club, announced today it is aggressively targeting expansion throughout Atlanta, bringing the artful fusion of traditional men’s grooming techniques paired with modern spa amenities and service offerings to the state of Georgia.

“There’s no refuting that the male grooming industry is on the rise, mounting into what is now a multi-billion dollar enterprise that continues to grow and develop each and every year,” said Ben Davis, CEO and founder of The Gents Place. “We’ve seen evidence of this continued growth in metropolitan areas across the country with Atlanta being one of these major growth cities. After witnessing the success and customer satisfaction throughout our four current locations, we feel confident that we can impact this ever-growing market by helping the men of Atlanta look and feel their most confident self. This is a great opportunity for entrepreneurs to get in on the ground floor to launch The Gents Place in the Atlanta market.”

Additionally, NFL Hall-of-Famer and co-owner of The Gents Place Emmitt Smith will play an integral role in the brand’s success throughout the Atlanta market and beyond.

The Gents Place prides itself on having one of the most unique service menus in the industry, epitomizing the exclusivity of an old world speakeasy paired with an upscale, welcoming country club atmosphere. Not only can guests enjoy an incredible hair service and shave in the best men’s grooming and lifestyle clubs in town, they can also take advantage of all of the luxuries of a modern spa.
