Hey Guys:
My husband and I are moving to the Charleston area and are looking @ maybe opening up a franchise! I would love to hear what type of franchises Charleston needs-wants. Is there a certain need in the area? I look forward to hearing your responses!

Dave & Busters. Something to give Frankie's Fun Park a run for it's money and to tide over the adults.

This is only if you want to make a gazillion bucks.
You may have higher aspirations.

Dunkin' Donuts w/drive up,
South side of 61,
West Ashley, just North of Bee's Ferry.

KA' KHING!~
It would be the right thing to do to remember me in your "How to be an instant Millionaire" book.

Salad Works, please! Or any type of convenience store. My husband and I are relocated Yankees and we seriously miss having a Wawa, Sheetz, or 7-11. There is nothing similar and I think one would make a killing!

I don't have a name for the franchise because I'm not sure there is one. I want a restaurant that has a large variety of healthy food. Preferrably in the Goose Creek or Summerville area.

DJ, mentioning Dave & Busters was dead-on!! Chas needs a venue like D & B because Frankie's, while it's OK, is starting to become outdated. I also believe that if you build one, build it West Ashley near Citadel Mall. I think that it would revitalize this section of town into a centerpiece of retail and business activity.

SC, Olive Garden and/or Carrabbas West Ashley would be great.

PF Chang's, Ruth's Chris, and Cheesecake Factory should also be considered.

I agree on these three, particularly PF Chang's and Cheesecake Factory.
