 This year has been one marked by multiple franchise acquisitions and mergers. One of the best examples of this is Unleashed Brands: the parent company of Urban Air Adventure Park, Snapology, and Little Gym, which was founded by Michael Browning in July. With a goal to help kids “Learn. Play. Grow.”, Unleashed Brands is looking to aggregate the “highly fragmented $30bn industry” of children’s enrichment.
The latest development to come from Unleashed Brands is the appointment of Nancy Bigley as president and CEO of Little Gym; bringing with her years of franchise development knowledge and experience. After building firm foundations this year, we could see a lot more from Michael’s Unleashed Brands in 2022.
