Snapology Discovery Centers will debut this year in Dover, CT; Rodgers, AR; Lehi, UT; and Amarillo, TX. Two new mobile franchise deals in Miami, FL and Cedar Rapids, IA round out the new wave of franchise growth.
Snapology has recently launched a new Discovery Center 2.0 model that aims to build on the already strong name recognition of the brand. The new retail-style concept will help to expand curriculum and brand offerings through a robust experience that only a hands-on learning center can provide to kids. The fully-developed classrooms engage children through STEAM activities such as coding, robotics, animation, play and interactive learning. Discovery Centers also offer a “Passport” membership program the help to establish brand loyalty and recurring revenue for franchisees.
“These first five months with Unleashed Brands have been incredibly rewarding for our company’s growth, and we’re proud to see our curriculum reach more kids in new exciting ways,” said Laura Coe, CEO and Co-Founder of Snapology. “Merging Snapology with Urban Air offers even more ways for kids to learn and grow through play, and the rollout of our new Discovery Center 2.0 model is a big milestone and paves the way for some exciting growth potential.”
Snapology encourages social skills and teamwork by teaching science, technology, engineering, art, math and literacy concepts in a fun way. The brand uses research-based curriculum, designed to be inclusive to all learning abilities with a hands-on teaching approach that uses LEGO® Bricks and other building toys, along with coding, video game design and robotics that encourages the perfect mix of play, academic enrichment and social development.
