As a privately held, Heritage based Company, Phillips Franchising philosophy is simple…we view our Franchise/License business operators as Partners, and realize the significant investment being made. We value the development and operational expertise our franchisees bring to our expansion of our Namesake Brands in the upscale dining, casual dining and QSR categories.

Mapping a course… A primary objective of our franchising strategy is to find and select proven investor/operators searching for a dynamic franchise investment. The business entity may take various forms, including multi-unit operators, food and facilities management groups and master concessionaires. Strategically, we have elected to expand primarily through multiple development agreements, however single unit development/operation may be offered in some cases.
