Gumbo Growth Expanding
Carmel-based Gumbo Growth LLC is expanding its J. Gumbo brand throughout the country. The company has announced five new franchise locations will open soon in Michigan, New Mexico, North Carolina, Ohio and Pennsylvania.
Gumbo Growth President Bill Church says the new locations will result in a total investment of between $550,000 and $1.5 million, depending on various factors, including size of the restaurant and the physical condition of building it will occupy. Between 35 and 60 workers will be hired among the five locations.
Specific opening dates for each location have not been released. When the new locations are open, Gumbo Growth will have J. Gumbo restaurants in 15 states.
