October 12, 2007 // Franchising.com // - West Redding, CT — Sandella's Flatbread, the largest and fastest growing flatbread concept in the world, is the most recent addition to The Franchise Registry, a listing of approved Small Business Administration (SBA) companies.
"Our concept is extremely simple to operate, relatively inexpensive to open, we have great support and marketing and now Sandella's is SBA approved so franchisees also enjoy these added benefits." Mike Stimola, Sandella's President.
SBA's new Franchise Registry is a good example of helping small businesses owners through cooperation between government and industry. The dedicated efforts of SBA employees, franchisees, franchisors, and lenders have led to streamlined eligibility guidelines and operating procedures that will reduce costs and processing time and help SBA serve its customers better. The Registry lists names of franchise companies whose franchisees enjoy the benefits of a streamlined review process for SBA loan applications.
"Our rapid growth has a direct correlation with our dedication to making our franchisees successful," continues Stimola. "We provide the very best support for them so that everyone— the company and the franchisees— will thrive."
Sandella's currently has 125 stores open nationwide and over 200 in development in states such as Nevada, California, Washington, D.C., Virginia, Texas, Florida and Ohio. The company expects to have 1,000 units in development by 2012.
Listed in Restaurant & Institutions Magazine Top 400 and named the seventh fastest growing concept according to Restaurant Business Magazine, Sandella's Flatbread is a branded fast casual restaurant concept with high quality, great tasting, products that are easy to execute—everything on the menu is made in four steps or less.
Sandella's incorporates the hottest trends in the fast casual segment, offering consumers fresh, hot and healthy menu items such as grilled paninis, sandwiches, grilled flatbreads and quesadillas—all made with their own delicious flatbread which is kosher and contains one gram of fat. Already ahead of its time, Sandella's is trans-fat free and listed in the Weight Watchers Points Guide.
