**TL;DR:** Cinnaholic targets rapid growth in 2021 after a successful 2020, with a new online ordering system and plans to launch new menu offerings. The brand experienced 29% system growth in 2020 and is known for its plant-based ingredients and unique customer experience.

## Story

The brand that sparked a nationwide love affair with gourmet cinnamon rolls on ABC’s hit show, Shark Tank experienced a successful 2020.

“Our franchise model has proven successful time and time again. Amid the pandemic, our existing franchisees were able to continue operations without temporarily closing their doors,” said Spencer Reid, president of Cinnaholic. “We’ve closed an extremely successful year in terms of franchise sales and are excited to continue the momentum as we look to excel growth in 2021!”

Last year, Cinnaholic phased in a new, technology-advanced online pick-up and third-party delivery ordering platform. The impact of the online ordering system was felt immediately, further emphasizing Cinnaholic as a brand with incredible staying power. Notably, Cinnaholic closed out 2020 with an overall system growth of 29%.

Cinnaholic has set itself apart as a “better-for-you” option exclusively using plant-based ingredients without sacrificing taste. Its variety of frosting and topping options make each customer experience truly unique, appealing to sweet-toothed dessert lovers across North America. This year, Cinnaholic is set to launch new and exciting menu offerings including chocolate covered strawberries and Valentine’s Day gift sets, King Cakes for Mardi Gras, chocolate chip banana bread, cookie cakes and Take & Bake cookie dough, all while staying on brand and being 100% vegan.

The brand also provides catering services, serving sweet treats for events large and small from birthday or office parties to baby showers and weddings. Customers can expect nothing less than the highest quality ingredients, as the plant-based, vegan bakery franchise was founded upon a commitment that all ingredients must be animal-free and free of dairy, lactose, eggs and cholesterol.
