Kolache Factory Debuts in McKinney, Texas
May 10, 2024 // Franchising.com // KATY, Texas - Kolache Factory is expanding in its home state of Texas.
Kolache Factory’s newest location will add more kolache power in the greater Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex with a new storefront in McKinney, Texas. The grand opening is slated for October 2024, promising to bring more of the beloved Czech pastry to the bustling community of McKinney.
New franchise owner Emily Chen has strong ties to her community, residing in Parker near the iconic South Fork Ranch with her family. As a professional residential mortgage broker, Emily is poised to expand her portfolio by venturing into the food and beverage industry.
“Kolache Factory is all about bringing unique flavors and a family-friendly dining experience to every neighborhood,” said Aaron Nielsen, Director of Franchise Development at Kolache Factory. “We are excited to grow in the DFW area and see Emily bring her business acumen and passion for our brand to McKinney, a city known for its vibrant and growing family-centric community.”
Chen’s introduction to kolaches and the Kolache Factory came through her husband, Stan, whose Ukrainian grandmother traditionally prepared these Old-World pastries. Kolaches originated in Eastern Europe and were popularized in Texas when Czech immigrants came over in the 1850s. The freshly baked pastries are filled with a variety of sweet and savory ingredients.
Her decision to open a franchise was driven by her entrepreneurial spirit and the desire to offer something unique to her community.
“When I first tasted a kolache, I knew I had to bring this experience closer to home,” Emily explained. “This is a great on-the-go meal I give my boys before they head off to swimming or other activities. I know they are getting protein and carbs for energy.”
Besides loving the product, the breakfast-lunch business model resonated with Emily’s hectic lifestyle as a busy mom and businesswoman, providing a great balance between family and work. With her strong background in business and finance, Emily is prepared to manage the store’s operations, ensuring that the Kolache Factory in McKinney becomes a cornerstone for quick, delicious, and hearty meals suited for the dynamic lifestyles of its patrons.
“We are thrilled to welcome Emily and her family into the Kolache Factory family,” Nielsen continued. “Her drive and commitment to quality are exactly what we look for in our franchisees. We're confident that she will make the McKinney location a great success.”
