Franchise podcast with Maui Wowi
We are meeting with Mike Weinberger from Maui Wowi. Since 1983, Maui Wowi® has embraced the Hawaiian culture and has been serving paradise in a cup since the day it began 35 years ago. From event carts to mall kiosks and stand-alone retail locations, Maui Wowi offers premium smoothies, gourmet Hawaiian coffees, and espresso beverages. The company maintains strong community involvement through fundraising efforts by its franchisees and Team Karma, an initiative that promotes corporate responsibility and giving back to the community. The brand has more than 450 operating units and an online store. In November 2015, Maui Wowi was acquired by Kahala Brands™, one of the fastest-growing franchising companies in the world, with a portfolio of 27 quick-service restaurant brands and approximately several thousand locations in over 25 countries.
