MY SALON Suite, a leading salon suite franchise empowering stylists and beauty professionals, has announced the acquisition of Mera Salon and Spa Suites in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. This strategic move follows a series of acquisitions in 2023, solidifying MY SALON Suite’s commitment to national expansion.
Mera Salon and Spa Suites, founded in 2018 by Blair and Dustin Clouatre, quickly established itself as a premier destination for beauty professionals in Louisiana. Their two locations in Baton Rouge and Gonzalez will soon be rebranded as MY SALON Suite, joining the existing six MY SALON Suite locations in the state. This expanded footprint allows MY SALON Suite to offer its unparalleled resources and support system to a wider range of beauty professionals in Louisiana.
While Mera Salon and Spa Suites enjoyed independent success, the national vision and support offered by MY SALON Suite proved to be an attractive proposition. “We were not actively seeking to sell,” explained Blair Clouatre, “but MY SALON Suite’s commitment to empowering suite owners and their clientele aligned perfectly with our values. Their national brand recognition and established resources will provide a significant boost to our existing operations.”
This acquisition is just one piece of MY SALON Suite’s aggressive growth strategy. In 2023, the brand signed over 40 franchise agreements and opened a remarkable 43 new locations. Looking ahead to 2024, MY SALON Suite plans to maintain this rapid expansion through a multi-pronged approach. Acquisitions and conversions of existing independent salon suites will be a key focus, alongside the strategic signing of multi-unit franchise agreements.
MY SALON Suite will showcase its franchise opportunities at the upcoming Multi-Unit Franchise Conference, further solidifying its commitment to aggressive growth. “The exceptional franchise growth we’ve achieved has positioned us perfectly for national expansion,” said Mark Jameson, Chief Development Officer of MY SALON Suite’s parent company, Propelled Brands. “Acquiring established salons and converting them into MY SALON Suite locations strengthens our network and allows us to offer exceptional opportunities within the beauty and wellness industry.”
Becoming a MY SALON Suite franchise owner requires an initial investment ranging from $823,344 to $2,241,800, with a $50,000 franchise fee. Ideal candidates possess a net worth of $1.5 million with $500,000 in liquid assets. MY SALON Suite offers a compelling incentive program for veterans and first responders, providing a 50% discount on the franchise fee.
