Testimonials

There is no better way to gauge the quality and success of a Franchise Organization than to hear from Franchise Owners themselves. So listen to what our POPrietors have to say about their Doc Pocporn experiences—from training to real estate location support to store design and build, to getting up and popping.

Doc Popcorn Franchise owners undergo an extensive four-day hands-on training program where they learn the secrets of our perfected all-natural ingredient combinations as well as everything else necessary to run a successful business and become a certified POPrietor.

“The Four Day Doc Popcorn training was really comprehensive. We learned everything from business management to popping nine delicious all-natural flavors. The team is knowledgeable—they are great teachers and they made it really fun!”

Bob and Kimberly Anderson, POPrietors, Providence, RI

 
“It’s not just learning to run a successful business or how to make the best popcorn in the world. The best thing was learning to make the customers smile.”

Geroge and Jessica Huye, POPrietors, Baton Rouge, LA

Doc Popcorn prides itself on having founders that are deeply involved in the day-to-day running of the business and who take a strong interest in helping each and every POPrietor achieve success. CEO Rob Israel and our network of real estate experts are hands-on in site selection and lease negotiation, ensuring our POPrietors get the best location and deal structures wherever possible.

"Doc Popcorn’s help with the lease negotiation process will save us over $50,000 over the course of our lease term. We couldn't be more grateful."

Bruce & Ellen Burr, POPrietors, Chicago, IL

"Doc Popcorn was instrumental with my lease negotiations. They coached me into a great lease and taught me a lot of inside negotiation "secrets" to ensure I was not being taken advantage of.  In the end, I locked in a great deal and now have valuable skills for future negotiations."

Cary Cheung, POPrietor, West Covina, CA

"I want to thank Doc Popcorn and founder Rob Israel for flying all the way to Maryland through a nasty January blizzard to spend the day assisting me in finding my first Doc Popcorn location.  As a new Doc Popcorn franchisee, it’s encouraging to know we have a team of professionals behind us who care and take a personal interest in our success!"

Bill Gains, POPrietor, Columbia, MD

Our build and design team has perfected the process of developing and delivering state-of-the-art PopShops™, PopKiosks™ and PopCarts™ in an efficient and timely manner.

"I signed a franchise agreement in November, and was open and popping in December. For my family and me it truly was a Christmas miracle!"

Derron Simon, POPrietor, Richmond, VA

"Before I was even open, Doc Popcorn’s head of operations came to my location to help me get up and running in a timely manner. Knowing that DP was willing to do that for me and my wife really confirmed our decision to choose Doc Popcorn. The Doc Popcorn team genuinely cares about my success. It really made us feel like part of the DP family."

Cary Cheung, POPrietor, West Covina, CA
