KURE to Sell 100 Franchises by 2016 in the United States

CHARLOTTE, N.C., Dec. 9, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- In August of 2015, KURE Franchise LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of KURE Corp., announced that its Franchise Disclosure Document (the "FDD") had been accepted and approved in over 37 states and has pending applications in 15 other states. 

Since the launch of its first corporate KURE modern Vaporium and Lounge earlier this year, KURE set goals of expanding to over 100 stores in the U.S. by the end of 2016. With its franchise model in place, KURE's goal of achieving 100 stores by 2016 nears reality. In just over a four month period, KURE Franchise LLC has sold over 30 franchises in the states of North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida and Georgia, with pending multi-unit development agreements in Connecticut, Virginia, Tennessee, Texas and California.

"Once a prospective franchisee sets foot in a KURE store, they have got to have one…there's nothing that compares," said Steve Ahearn, a KURE Franchisee. KURE's six corporate stores in North Carolina and Florida have served as a sales floor to sell franchises. KURE remains one of the fastest growing modern Vaporium & Lounges in the U.S., with its corporate stores exceeding all initial sales projections. KURE stores cater to loyal traditional customers, as well as new vaping enthusiasts, seven days a week. 

In order to take advantage of the franchise potential, KURE has reorganized certain portions of its management and board members in order to capitalize on its growth. KURE has shifted its executive management by appointing director Craig Brewer as Chief Executive Officer and Martin Sumichrast as its Chairman of the Board. Craig Brewer is an experienced executive with history in building strong revenue and producing companies from its early stages. In addition, KURE has begun adding seasoned franchise sales and marketing executives into its organization from known franchise brands in the United States.

"We are fortunate to have had a brilliant team at KURE that is completely focused on building a truly unique, value-based enterprise for our franchise owners," comments Martin Sumichrast, Chairman of KURE Corp. and Vice Chairman of Siskey Capital, LLC.
