Wow Wow Hawaiian Lemonade to Bring Gourmet Lemonade Stand to the Strip

TL;DR

Wow Wow Hawaiian Lemonade signed a franchise agreement to bring its gourmet lemonade stand to Las Vegas, focusing on health and eco-friendliness. The brand is expanding to Las Vegas and Reno, Nevada, with new franchisees.

Introduced to the fast-casual restaurant through a family friend, Chu was able to gain key insights early on and quickly developed a deep-rooted love for Wow Wow's colorful flavors. Chu is dedicated to personal health and fitness, which go hand-in-hand with Wow Wow's nutritious menu options, and knows this will translate to other Nevadans. Bringing lemonades, acai bowls, avocado toasts and more to the Strip will surely add some diversity to storefronts and a family-friendly dining option.

Chu is especially confident the concept will be popular amongst University of Nevada, Las Vegas students, as there is a large community of Hawaiian attendees.

"Wow Wow is a perfect addition to Las Vegas – it offers a great balance of healthy and delicious food and beverages, while providing a fun place to kick back and relax," said Chu. "I'm looking forward to this journey not only for myself and the business, but I'm also eager to introduce the bright, unique, flavors to visitors and locals alike."

Founded in Hawaii, Wow Wow specializes in made-from-craft gourmet lemonades – ranging from a classic lemonade to adventurous flavors like the Ginger Pineapple, Passionfruit Guava, Blue Hawaii, and the Lava Flow Lemonades. When the Las Vegas location opens, Nevadans and those visiting Sin City will come to crave the endless options of their favorite superfoods with healthy, energizing menu items like the Aunty's Pitaya Smoothie, Blue Hawaii Smoothie Bowl, Cobb Grain Bowl and Black Lava Flatbread Sandwich. Every menu item is all-natural and made in-house.

On top of fresh and healthful products, Wow Wow Hawaiian Lemonades is fervently committed to sustainability. Guests can order their lemonades or smoothies in a re-usable Mason Jar and receive a discount on their next purchase if they bring the Mason Jar back to reuse.

"We are thrilled to welcome Matt to our O'hana (family). His natural entrepreneurial spirit and commitment to bringing a unique and healthy quick service restaurant to Las Vegas, combined with his strong work ethic makes him an ideal franchisee," said Tim Weiderhoft, CEO of Wow Wow Hawaiian Lemonade. "Las Vegas is used to new, fun, and exciting things, and we are proud to add Wow Wow to that list with a great partner like Matt."

Matt and every Wow Wow franchisee have the benefit of unmatched franchisee support from the corporate team. Wow Wow is looking for additional franchisees with a head for business, an interest in healthy eating, and a value for community.

In addition to the upcoming Las Vegas expansion, Wow Wow has also partnered with Tina Montella to bring multiple locations to Reno, Nev. The first Reno location is on track to open later this year.
