When visionary founder Michael Browning Jr. launched Unleashed Brands, he set out to build a next-generation youth-enrichment platform. His leadership has now hit a major milestone: in a recent article in Fort Worth Inc., it was announced that Unleashed Brands will relocate its headquarters to a 50,000-square-foot office in Las Colinas.

A Strategic Move for Unleashed Brands

According to the Fort Worth Inc. article, Unleashed Brands has signed a lease at 600 E Las Colinas Blvd., Irving. The new headquarters will accommodate nearly 300 employees and serve as a centralized hub for the Unleashed Brands portfolio.

The decision aligns with the company’s rapid growth — having grown to support over 1,400 franchise locations and impacting more than 20 million families.

Michael Browning Jr.’s Vision and Journey

Michael Browning Jr. grew up in an entrepreneurial family in Arlington, Texas. His parents owned a laundromat, worked a dairy farm, and later founded a homebuilding business.

From selling bracelets door-to-door, trading baseball cards, building websites in high school, to launching a data analytics firm while at TCU, he showed early business instinct.

In 2011, he launched Urban Air Adventure Park in Southlake, building it by hand with his family — working everything from janitor to party host.

When the pandemic disrupted the industry, Browning reimagined youth enrichment, and in 2021 launched Unleashed Brands as the unifying platform to help kids learn, play and grow through purpose-driven experiences.

What the New Headquarters Means for the Platform

The new facility is more than extra square footage. It’s designed to reflect the mission of Unleashed Brands: helping kids learn, play and grow. The space will include a state-of-the-art training center to support franchise owners and their teams across the multi-brand portfolio.

It also signals readiness for future acquisitions and expansion across the youth-enrichment space.

By relocating from Bedford to Las Colinas and bringing remote team members together in one roof, the company is executing its “Project Compass” return-to-office strategy — enabling faster decision-making, more collaboration and stronger cross-functional teamwork.

Why This Matters for Franchisees & Families

For franchisees and partners of Unleashed Brands, this move under Michael Browning Jr.’s guidance underscores several key benefits:

A headquarters built for growth: The dedicated space and training center mean better support, resources and operational tools.
Strong leadership and continuity: Michael’s journey from founder of Urban Air through to scaling Unleashed Brands shows his commitment and grit.
Enhanced brand credibility: Being featured in Fort Worth Inc. for this major expansion signals to the market, employees, and potential franchisees that Unleashed Brands is serious about its mission and future.
A better employee & partner experience: Centralizing employees and inviting more collaboration means faster innovation and improved service for all stakeholders.

Looking Ahead

Under Michael Browning Jr.’s leadership, Unleashed Brands is set for the next decade of growth. With the new headquarters, the company is positioned to scale its platform, acquire complimentary brands, invest in technology and deepen its impact on kids and families nationwide.

As Michael himself said: “Our growth over the last several years has been incredible, and this move represents the next evolution of Unleashed Brands.”
