Hand & Stone Featured in Phoenix Business Journal


Hand & Stone was recently featured in the Phoenix Business Journal where regional developer, Maggie Brown and CEO, Todd Leff, shared the track record for success the brand has established in the Phoenix-area. With the sixth opening in the market and three more planned for 2013, the brand has the potential to reach at least 23 total locations. With the industry reaching $13.4 billion in 2011, this spa shows no signs of slowing down, projecting another 50 locations to be opened in 2013.


"'Even in a rough economy this is something that people do for themselves,' said Maggie Brown, the spa chain's regional developer for Arizona. Brown owns the franchise rights in Arizona and also runs two of the six Valley locations. She has plans to open upward of 23 Hand & Stone stores in Arizona, with the Biltmore area of Phoenix high on the list of potential spots. Brown also mentioned she is researching Chandler, Gilbert, Flagstaff, Prescott and Tucson." 

The article goes on to say that Brown cites Phoenix's status as a popular travel destination for the popularity of the spa. She has made arrangements with several area hotels to refer visitors to Hand and Stone for spa services during their stay.
