Cousins Maine Lobster Plans Food Truck Tour Across Wisconsin: Bringing a Taste of New England to the Badger State, and Seeking Local Franchise Partners

The Road Show is being led by the Cousins Maine Lobster Chicago franchisees Yunus Shahul and Thameem Shahul. The Shahul brothers joined CML in 2018, and now have sixteen CML food trucks operating across Illinois, Connecticut, New York, Virginia, Maryland, Washington, D.C., and Florida. They are among the brand’s most successful multi-unit franchise operators.

Cousins Maine Lobster was founded in 2012 as a single food truck. CML got its big break on the fourth season of Shark Tank when real-life cousins and co-founders, Sabin Lomac and Jim Tselikis, landed a deal with Shark Barbara Corcoran. Twelve years later, CML is one of the top five Shark Tank investments of all time! Now operating 70 units across 27 states, the brand has been on a mission to increase its reach across the Midwest through the recruitment of new franchise partners in new markets.

Co-Founder, Jim Tselikis shares, “We are fortunate to have the opportunity to leverage our incredible franchise partners, the Shahuls, to bring Cousins Maine Lobster on tour to new markets across Wisconsin. This is our second visit to Wisconsin this summer, and we have been overwhelmed by the positive response we’ve received from so many new and returning fans! We would love to serve our loyal customers more often. We have been actively seeking passionate entrepreneurs to join our family of franchisees in hopes of permanently expanding our reach across Milwaukee, Madison and LaCrosse markets.” Those interested in learning more may visit Cousins Maine Lobster or contact Lindsay Herberger, Director of Franchise Development, at [email protected].
