The Most Famous Bar on the Planet continues its aggressive growth across the globe
It’s famous, it’s glamorous. It’s a proven success. Welcome to the Coyote Ugly franchise experience!The last 18 months have seen Coyote Ugly expand the brand with an additional corporate location in the US as well as the first location in the new markets of the UK, Japan, and Kyrgyzstan. As the Coyote Ugly team looks ahead to an epic end to 2017 and a very busy start to 2018, there is no slow down in sight! “It’s thrilling to be opening these international bars. It gives us a chance to learn what makes these amazing cultures special as well as bringing the Coyote Ugly culture to the markets!” says owner and founder Liliana Lovell. “It’s amazing to see how far we’ve come from a small (but awesome), single bar in New York City.”
The famous bar is expanding to all parts of the globe. With its most recent openings in Bishkek-Kyrgyzstan, Tokyo-Japan, and Cardiff-Wales, the brand is in negotiations with Australia, New Zealand, India, Canada, and others. Momentum has continued to build in recent months and there are strong signs of many more locations to come.
Recent focus on the UK has led to the brand’s most recent signing, one for the expansion rights for the entire UK and Ireland markets! Franchise owner Steve Lewis who opened the first Coyote Ugly bar in the UK in December of last year, has now set his sights on the rest of the UK. The next opening will be in Liverpool, followed by bars in cities like Birmingham, Dublin, Edinburgh, Belfast, Manchester, Blackpool, with more to come.
“It’s terrific when we open a bar in a new market and get such an immediate positive response and following,” says Justin Livingston, Vice President of Global Development for Coyote Ugly. “We strive to find only the best new franchisees to bring the brand into a new market and we have found that in Steve Lewis from Wales. We’re thrilled to see Steve begin an aggressive expansion throughout the rest of the UK and Ireland. The Cardiff bar has been a huge success and we have loved the staff, customers, and seeing the Coyote Culture enter this amazing market!”
Epic venue
The 2016 opening of the Cardiff bar was the Coyote Ugly entry into the UK. The bar is in The Square, a historic building in the heart of the city that originally functioned as the Philharmonic Theater. With a major renovation, the bar was transformed and the Coyote Ugly parties began with a ticketed Grand Opening event where all proceeds were donated to support breast cancer research. “In its first year, Coyote Ugly has been very well received and the epic venue has continued to fill every night since opening! It has become a destination for locals and tourists alike coming to experience the Coyote Culture! It’s been a great entry to the UK market and we are so excited to continue expansion there!” Livingston says.
This recent surge in the brand’s expansion is just the beginning, as Coyote Ugly is in development conversations with potential franchisees in Australia, Thailand, Singapore, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Germany, Canada, Mexico and other exciting locations. “With major cities like Sydney, Shanghai, Bangkok, Montreal, Cancun, Rio, and many more still available, there are amazing opportunities for Coyote Ugly all around the world,” Livingston says.
The concept is seeking dynamic partners to add to the franchise family who have the experience and desire to enter or expand into the bar/nightclub industry at the top with a powerhouse brand like Coyote Ugly. The Saloons thrive in major cities with high tourism and high numbers of local patrons.
Local cultures
Led by owner, founder, and original Coyote Liliana Lovell, Coyote Ugly is a well-oiled machine with one of the strongest support and training systems in franchising. This unique concept is able to provide systems and methods for running the world-famous brand but also the flexibility to adapt to local cultures and traditions. The robust training and operations system includes full training of owners, managers, and staff, assistance with site selection and procurement, store design, brand and marketing guidance, and unrivaled ongoing support.
The total investment in a Coyote Ugly Saloon franchise is between $500,000USD and $1,500,000USD dependent on location/market, size, and condition of the unit. Single and multi-unit franchise partnerships are available. Coyote Ugly is looking to expand the brand with franchisees who embrace the culture of Coyote Ugly Saloon and share their vision of offering the Coyote Experience to the market.
