Tulsa World: Coolgreens Eyes Tulsa for Development

TL;DR

Coolgreens is eyeing Tulsa for one of its first franchised locations outside of Oklahoma City. The company is also considering other locations including Dallas/Ft. Worth, Kansas City, Wichita, Omaha, and Denver.

Tulsa is proving to be a hot spot for restaurant chains due to the growing, younger market. Coolgreens is eyeing Tulsa for one of the first franchised locations outside of its home market of Oklahoma City.

In addition to Tulsa, the company is also eyeing Dallas/Ft. Worth, Kansas City, Wichita, Omaha and Denver.

"There's a science to it," Clay Carson, Coolgreens VP of Franchise Development told the Tulsa World reporter. "We know our core customer...and you've got pockets within bigger markets where you have groups that tend to have a bit of a healthier lifestyle."

Carson sees several similarities between Tulsa and Oklahoma City, where the brand has already seen success with its six existing locations.
