We weren’t just looking for a capital provider, we were looking for a real partner who understood our business and shared our vision for growth. Alex and Andrew took the time to ask questions and really understand our business and goals. They were transparent with me every step of the way. They have a deep appreciation for what makes Rita’s special and what it takes to be successful with our franchisee partners and customers.”
Good operators can become great operators with the support of a likeminded investor partner. While leading Main Event, I had the opportunity to experience this firsthand with the Maple Park team. Their understanding of the importance of unit growth, hands-on approach to scaling experiential services businesses, and long-standing industry relationships distinguish them from others.”
Growing a family business means finding the right balance between forward-looking strategies and staying true to what made your business successful in the first place. Having had the opportunity to collaborate with Alex and Andrew, it’s clear they prioritized company culture and founder vision from day one, while bringing their own value-added skillset that helps accelerate growth. They have our backs.”
In franchise businesses, true success comes from understanding when to refine the model and when to push for growth. The Maple Park team understands that balance, as well as the unique dynamics specific to franchisees and franchisors. They are eager to roll up their sleeves and work collaboratively with their partners. Any company that can call Maple Park a partner is fortunate.”
Having worked closely with Andrew and Alex in recent years in my capacity as CEO of Jet Linx, I have witnessed the value they bring to management teams, the thoughtfulness they bring to decision-making, and the confidence they bring to helping companies execute. They are true partners and collaborators.”
Success in both sports and business hinges on strong leadership, a clear operational strategy and a unique competitive advantage. What differentiates the Maple Park team is their ability to foster lasting relationships and drive real, measurable growth at companies—built on those core principles.”
