  • Franchise Fridays: Meet Water's Edge Winery
    Sep 15 2023

    In this episode of Quantum Business Briefs we explore a business opportunity in the food and beverage industry. You'll meet founder and CEO Ken Lineberger at Water's Edge Winery. Waters Edge Wineries is a unique concept allowing our owners to open a micro-winery and bistro in their community. Waters Edge Wineries® is an urban winery system that brings the very best of wine culture to communities across the country. Combining elements of the traditional winemaking experience with the emerging wine bar concept, Waters Edge creates a diverse selection of wines and offers guests an opportunity to engage intimately with a historically exclusive lifestyle. As it seeks to bring the winery experience to the people, Waters Edge Wineries® presents an innovative, versatile concept that treats guests to quality wines, a relaxing atmosphere, and a cultural experience like no other. Our franchise helps people start up complete wineries in a retail space that ranges from 3,500 – 4,000 square feet. Each winery offers exclusive wines with many popular varietals, Bistro-style appetizers & desserts, custom labeling and more. The difference between a Waters Edge Winery and a traditional winery is that we do not grow or crush the grapes – we outsource those functions to a global network of vineyards and growers. This lowers the cost of ownership, and removes the biggest risk associated with most wineries. Actual wine production is done onsite. A Waters Edge Winery® makes several wines that are exclusive to our winery locations. We make many of the popular varietals, including Merlots, Cabs and Chardonnays. We also make some harder-to-find wines such as Barolos, Gewurztraminers, Pinotages, Petit Verdot and Ports. We source grapes globally that will allow you to make over 50 different kinds of wine using grapes from the best grape growing regions in the world. Places such as California, Italy, France, New Zealand, Chile and Germany. We also offer a lineup of wines that are found nowhere else and add to the spectrum of tastes for our guests. These include fun wines such as our popular Peach Apricot Sangria and Cranberry Sangria. These wines are easy for nearly everyone to enjoy – low in alcohol and slightly off-dry.

  • Franchise Fridays: Meet Naturals2Go Healthy Vending
    Aug 4 2023

    In this episode of Quantum Business Briefs we explore a business opportunity in the vending industry. You'll meet Justin Loebel, Startup Consutant, with Naturals2Go. The Timing is RIGHT! It isn’t often that two industries just so happen to align but when they do, you want to listen. Now is your chance to capitalize on both the VENDING and the WELLNESS industry! Take advantage of this “Perfect Storm” of circumstances to launch and grow your own Healthy Vending Machine Business. Use your machines to help people eat better by giving them smarter choices while adding profits to your bottom line. The time has never been better than right now. The younger generations are opting more toward convenience over cost. With the use of more and more technology for buying and Naturals2Go machines give you every advantage you need. Join the Revolution that is Good For Everyone! We live in a unique time where funding from the government, public opinion, and professional interest are all coming together. These support systems are what are propelling the healthy vending industry to be SO LUCRATIVE and ATTRACTIVE! When Nielsen polled Americans about why they’re snacking so much, most of them said they “enjoyed” eating all the time. After enjoyment, the second most common reason Americans cite for eating a snack in the past 30 days is “to satisfy hunger in between meals,” Nielsen found. Wellness, Nutrition, and More! Healthy eating has been popularized by research, dieting, and science, with major advancements made in the last 3 years especially. We now realize that people need different kinds of food, the dangers of sugar, and the need to balance nutrients to ensure we and our families are healthy. The Wellness Revolution is supported by healthy snack eating. Give the people what they want, what they NEED, and what they CRAVE! The Political Push Toward Wellness The fact that politicians seem to be revved up to find backing for their causes shows that wellness, nutrition, and food are big topics this year and this trend will remain. With over 55 bills introduced on the subject, there is strong support for the healthy vending industry and the cause of creating wellness in the community. This kind of support means that business will likely keep booming and being center stage. Just another reason to get started with your venture.
