Color Me Mine Expands its Creative Horizons in Tennessee
Color Me Mine, recognized as the foremost paint-your-own-pottery franchise in the industry, is embarking on an ambitious expansion into Tennessee. This move coincides with the state's remarkable ranking as the seventh best in the nation for franchise growth. With new franchise agreements now in place, Color Me Mine is setting its sights on several promising markets throughout the Volunteer State.
The brand currently operates a thriving studio in Murfreesboro, with another location slated to open in Nashville later this year. Additionally, Color Me Mine is targeting strategic expansions in various cities, including Chattanooga, Memphis, Clarksville, Knoxville, Jackson, and Cookeville. Nashville also serves as the operational hub for the brand's corporate training center, providing essential support to new franchisees entering the market.
Recent data from the International Franchise Association (IFA) has highlighted Tennessee's favorable position for franchise growth, driven by demographic trends and a pro-business environment. As Teresa Johnson, CEO of Color Me Mine, stated, "Tennessee stands out as a prime market for franchise growth...We’re excited to partner with passionate entrepreneurs to spread 'The Art of Having Fun' throughout the state."
Founded in 1991 in Los Angeles, Color Me Mine is uniquely positioned in the arts and crafts entertainment sector. Its acquisition in 2020 by Twist Brands LLC has propelled the franchise's growth, and it boasts over 130 locations worldwide, including the United States, Canada, Costa Rica, and the Philippines. This expansion into Tennessee aligns with a broader push into the lucrative $70 million arts and crafts market in the U.S.
Caitlin Davidson, the owner of Color Me Mine Murfreesboro, expressed enthusiasm about the brand’s impact in the community. "Our studio provides a unique atmosphere where people can indulge in hands-on creative experiences, fostering a sense of artistic self-care. It’s important for our community to have a space where they can escape, connect, and create meaningful art together."
Looking ahead, Color Me Mine is actively scouting for qualified franchisees across the United States, especially in the Southern and Northwestern regions. They are particularly interested in individuals who are enthusiastic about building relationships within their communities. The franchise offers a promising business model: in 2024, the average unit volume was reported at $478,776, and the initial investment for a franchise ranges from $180,000 to $437,700.
