## Story

Sacramento residents’ pet spending is on the rise, and K-9 Resorts is looking for local franchisee partners to bring the brand to the area. The Sacramento Bee recently spoke with K-9’s Jason Parker about the brand and their development plans.

The article focuses on the incredible success of their existing locations and a recent private equity deal allowing for larger expansion.

Said Parker, “We launched the franchise in 2011, spent the next five years growing regionally on the East Coast, the northeast, sold eight franchises. All the locations are successful, and in 2016, five years after we launched, we completed a private-equity transaction and brought on a group to become minority partners in our franchise. They invested $2 million so that we can now grow across the country.”

The article also includes franchisee financial requirements and a link for those interested in joining the growing brand.
