NEW ALBANY, Ind. — Award-winning pizza concept PARLOUR has signed a six-store franchise deal with H&W Hospitality to open locations in Kentucky, Tennessee and Florida.
H&W Hospitality is owned by Nate Haney and Mike White of Haney & White Enterprise, a nationally known logistics company based in Shepherdsville, Ky.
“We are thrilled to welcome new members, H&W Hospitality LLC, to the PARLOUR family,” said PARLOUR Franchising CEO & President Don Robinson. “Their extensive business management experience aligns seamlessly with our commitment to excellence.”
“This is a new venture for us,” Haney said, “but after frequenting PARLOUR locations over the past couple of years with family and friends, Mike and I were drawn to the quality of people, its food and atmosphere.”
Haney and White have a “shared dedication to a people-first mindset,” Robinson said, “which reinforces PARLOUR’s mission of serving not just as a hub for great food and drinks but as a community-centric establishment. This marks a significant milestone, and we look forward to a collaborative journey marked by success, growth, and the embodiment of our shared values.”
PARLOUR recently announced the franchising company had signed a three-store development deal to open a trio of locations in Lexington, Ky., along with an expansion in Louisville that opened in the Falls City Brewery in NULU.
“This is just the first step in many new developments across multiple cities we’re working in,” Robinson said at the time, alluding to next steps.
The H&W Hospitality franchise locations will open in or around the following areas:
• Southeastern Louisville, Ky and Bullitt County, Ky.
• Bowling Green, Ky.
• Suburban Nashville, Tn.
• Gulf Coast of Florida.
Further details including when locations are slated to open will be announced later when real estate issues are finalized.
“Our team has worked extremely hard to bring our vision of an elevated experience to the pizza segment. Our concept has well above average unit volume and supports this decision to move to franchising,” said Robinson.
Established in 2020, PARLOUR currently has six locations: 131 W. Chestnut St., Jeffersonville, Ind., the original restaurant; 2636 Frankfort Ave., Louisville; 225 State St., New Albany, Ind.; 133 W. Liberty St., Louisville; 3910 Ruckriegel Pkwy, Jeffersontown, Ky.; 901 E. Liberty St., Louisville.
