Trio of Franchisees to Expand Optical Retail Brand in Dallas and Austin Areas

DALLAS, May 5, 2021 // PRNewswire // - My Eyelab, a retail brand of Now Optics, is gearing up for expansion in the Austin and Dallas markets. This growth plan comes after a signed agreement from the end of 2020 with a trio of new franchisees looking to grow the brand in these two markets. The franchisees, Arash Ghanbari, Victor Mankrious, and Sameh Bekhit plan to open eight locations over the next three years with four in each market. Their first location is set to open in Dallas in August 2021, shortly followed by two more stores in Austin.

These franchisees have a unique portfolio of experience, having worked in mechanical engineering, research and development, dentistry and entrepreneurship. Ghanbari and Mankrious are mechanical engineers, equipping them to handle operations and the financial aspects of running their My Eyelab locations. Additionally, Mankrious and his wife have owned and operated a small pharmacy for the past five years. Bekhit is a dentist who owns and operates multiple dental practices. With this background in small business ownership, he will lead oversight of the operations.

"Growing the My Eyelab brand in Dallas and Austin is an honor, since we will have the opportunity to help the community by providing excellent eye care products and services," said Arash Ghanbari. "We are looking forward to this opportunity to expand our portfolios and take a deep dive into the world of franchising with My Eyelab. This brand has an incredibly strong business approach that's proven to work throughout the pandemic for plenty of franchisees, which is why we feel so confident in our pursuit."

Added Victor Makrious: "We are excited to be joining a brand that's demonstrated great economic power, focus on technological innovation and customer service. Through telehealth, we're able to provide better, comfortable quality service to our customers and make ourselves more readily available to their needs. This is a future-forward brand sitting at the forefront of telemedicine, and we believe this is what will set us up for optimal success."
