Awesome Chips has partnered with leisure real estate specialist McKinnon Nelson to secure new high street shop premises as the franchise expands across the UK. The chip concept, which launched in 2015, is set to open five new shops by the end of 2023. It serves up fresh hand-cut chips complemented with a range of sauces, rubs and spices from branches in Leicester, Wood Green in London and the Bullring Shopping Centre in Birmingham,
Anthony Round, franchise director at Awesome Chips, explains: “Chips are generally an impulse purchase so we are looking for great locations with a high footfall. McKinnon Nelson’s expertise in site sourcing means they are well placed to support our expansion plans, helping us secure the very best sites for our new franchisees to trade successfully.” Will Nelson, real estate advisor at McKinnon Nelson, adds: “We are delighted to partner with Awesome Chips to help fulfil the site requirements of this exciting, growing brand. Locations in key shopping centres and good high street sites will be paramount and we will be exploring opportunities on behalf of franchisees across the UK.”
