Shuckin' Shack - Franchise

WE’D RATHER ROOT FOR THE JETS
than franchise another crappy sports pub. 

What we have: 

• The best SHUCKIN’ oysters and freshest seafood in the country
• Average sales of $987,901*
• An incredible place to watch sports
• The most fun you can have as a Franchise Owner on Earth 

What we don’t have: 

• Soggy nachos
• Boring wings and greasy burgers
• Real competition
• The same lame decorations you see in every sports bar

(If you’re a Jets fan, that’s okay too. We’ll work our tails off to support you just the same. You’ve gone through enough already.)

WHY YOU SHOULD OPEN A SHUCKIN’ SHACK AND AVOID THE SPORTS PUB CLICHÉ

Basically no competition: Own the best oyster bar in town — and probably the ONLY one. Kind of like the Carolina Panthers* in the NFC South this year, we’ve got no real competition.

Be the go-to tailgating hangout (but hold the crappy food): Shack Tailgating is a real thing! Be the coolest place in your town to hang out, AND the best place for people to shuck around with their friends before, during or after the game. 

The freshest, best-tasting oysters in the country, hands-down: Our supply chain is so shuckin’ dialed-in that we can guarantee Owners are getting the freshest seafood available, whether they’re near the coast or not! 

On track for a record-breaking year: Unlike a lot of restaurants, we did not struggle to stay open last year. In fact, we’re on-pace for a record-breaking year in 2021** and our Owners have average unit sales of almost a MILLION dollars at $987,901! 

*The Shuckin’ Shack leadership team is Panthers fans. Your team loyalties, however misguided they might be, will not impact your ability to own a Shuckin’ Shack.

THE BEST SHUCKIN' OYSTERS IN THE COUNTRY, AND IT’S NOT EVEN CLOSE
