Our Story

Vetted Franchise Brands emerged from a profound need for sustainable franchising within the dynamic restaurant community. Founded by Steve Lieber and Mitchell Nolan in 2023, their journey originated back in 2020 at the Titus Center for Franchising at Palm Beach Atlantic University, where a shared vision united them. Steve, a seasoned professional sitting on the Advisory Board, and Mitchell, an astute student studying franchising, recognized a troubling shift in the franchise industry and an opportunity for improvement.
