Hi Thomas, I am Erik and am interested in purchasing a wheelys. Here are my questions:

* Would you consider your model a true franchise?

* Does a Wheelys 3 make drip coffee and espresso drinks?

* As you expand across the US and gain brand recognition, will there be a store locator app, gift cards, loyalty programs, etc.? (I live in a California tourist beach destination)

I am an American, home of the Yankees, the cronut, and truck balls.

* Would you consider your model a true franchise? I would not describe it as a true franchise. Rather a model of it's own inspired by the franchise model.

* Does a Wheelys 3 make drip coffee and espresso drinks? Yes

* As you expand across the US and gain brand recognition, will there be a store locator app, gift cards, loyalty programs, etc.? (I live in a California tourist beach destination) Yes

Where I live in Puyallup, WA truck-balls/trucknuts are uncomfortably common.
