Nhood has been appointed as a consultant for Spartan's franchise expansion into Spain and Poland. The collaboration involves key activities critical to the brand's long-term success in these new markets, including identifying and selecting franchise partners as well as finding the best locations for future Spartan restaurants. While Spain and Poland have distinct culinary traditions and specific market behaviors in the Food & Beverage sector, the QSR segment, in which Spartan operates, is experiencing growth, offering the Romanian brand a promising opportunity.
“The launch of our collaboration with Spartan marks an important milestone in diversifying our services, demonstrating Nhood's ability to be a reliable partner for local brands in their international expansion efforts. We are excited to offer Spartan our full support, from finding local partners to selecting prime locations for their new restaurants, contributing to their success in Spain and Poland. Projects like this highlight Nhood's development strategy, providing integrated solutions for ambitious brands ready to expand internationally,” stated Gabriela Piștalu, Head of Property & Asset Services at Nhood Services Romania.
“This collaboration is strategically significant for Nhood as it represents our first international expansion project for a brand via franchising, executed simultaneously in multiple countries. This partnership allows us to leverage our extensive real estate expertise and showcase our ability to manage complex projects across diverse European markets. At the same time, it confirms Nhood's capacity to adapt its services to meet the specific needs of our clients, offering unified but tailored solutions based on our deep understanding of the local markets we operate in. Supporting brands in their international growth and helping them find the best solutions for sustainable development is a key priority for Nhood,” stated Bogdan Aldea, Head of Business Development at Nhood Services Romania.
Nhood's expertise in managing complex real estate projects, combined with its network of local and international partnerships, ensures that Spartan's expansion will be implemented efficiently and in alignment with the specifics of each market. With extensive experience in managing commercial spaces and facilitating durable partnerships, Nhood is well-positioned to identify optimal locations for each brand, reinforcing its status as a trusted partner for expanding brands across European markets.
