November 09, 2023 // Franchising.com // PHOENIX, AZ - GLO30 announced a multi-unit franchise agreement with Philip Horn and Donald Bauer for Phoenix, Arizona. Philip and Donald are seasoned QSR franchisees that have built an impressive legacy of brand development and expansion with brands like Papa Johns, QDOBA Mexican Grill, Jersey Mike’s, Huey Magoo’s Chicken Tenders and Chop5 Salad Kitchen. They are now setting their sights on another brand, GLO30.

“We were just very excited to diversify into something that’s not in the food business. We’ve looked for something for a long time, then Dan Rowe introduced us to GLO30, and we were able to take a look at the brand in Washington” said Donald.

Donald and Philip began working together in 1995 as Donald, a former Domino’s pizza franchisee overseeing five stores, joined forces with Philip, who was seeking assistance in managing his five Papa Johns restaurants. Together, they grew their Papa Johns and have ventured into various culinary territories since.

“We were early in Papa Johns, we were early in Jersey Mike’s, and we are early in Huey Magoo’s, so we’ve been a part of a number of emerging brands and have been able to watch them grow. We’re excited to do that again with GLO30” said Philip Horn. GLO30 is their first venture outside of the food industry and follows a trend of successful diversification, sparked by their desire to find a simpler, more efficient franchise model.

“We’ve followed Planet Fitness and Orange Theory as they got into this subscription business, which is very intriguing if you build out your customer base. The scheduling is easy, the operations are easy, you know what’s coming” said Philip. “In the restaurant business, you know a rainstorm or a football game, there are so many variables that can change our business in a minute. We really like the simplicity and the consistency of the GLO30 model.”

GLO30 partnered with Fransmart in January 2023. This latest agreement in Arizona marks the brand’s first expansion out West, and joins Texas, North Carolina, Florida, Maryland, and Virginia.
