TL;DR
Launch Entertainment signs a development deal with Sejal and Trushar Patel for its first San Diego location, expected to open in 2024. The location will feature various attractions such as bowling, indoor trampolines, and arcades.
The family entertainment concept, known for its large variety of attractions for the whole family, recently signed an agreement with local multi-unit franchise owners, Sejal and Trushar Patel. The San Diego area park is expected to open midway through 2024, featuring attractions such as bowling, indoor trampolines, arcades, and more.
“I’ve been an owner in the franchise industry for years now, so I know a great investment when I see one,” said Sejal. “We were drawn to the Launch Entertainment franchise opportunity. Our market has been underserved in having a variety of entertainment activities, and I’m confident that local residents will cherish the options we’ll offer for the entire family.
San Diego needs another fun-filled entertainment spot for children, so we are really focused on fulfilling that for our community, while also offering a multitude of attractions for any age that will keep guests coming back year-round.”
Sejal started working for her father's businesses at age 14 and has operated independent convenience stores since then. With this business experience, Sejal was able to branch out into the franchise world and introduced other family members to the childcare and education industry. Additionally, Sejal and Trushar’s prior experience operating multiple businesses has prepared them to add Launch to their portfolio. The finalization of the location agreement marks the couple’s passion for the brand and dedication to ownership.
“We are thrilled to partner with business operators like Sejal and Trushar, and are seeking new franchisees from coast to coast,” said Jeff Todd, SVP of Business Development at Launch Entertainment. “Armed with their knowledge of previous business ownership in a similar industry, we knew that Sejal and Trushar would be well-matched for our franchise opportunity. The entertainment industry is a great move for those in the childcare space, and we look forward to seeing Sejal and Trusher’s future with Launch Entertainment.
We are confident the local community will be as thrilled about the upcoming San Diego location as much as we are.”
