Game Truck Party Franchise - a Recession Resistant Video Game Business Joins Franchise Solutions

Jan. 29, 2009 - PRLog -- Franchise Solutions, a leading franchise and business buying information website, announced today that GameTruck, the world's first mobile video game theater franchise, has joined its client list. GameTruck (http://www.franchisesolutions.com/franchise/GameTruck_LLC_The.cfm) provides several services including onsite video game entertainment for birthday parties and corporate events. With the explosive growth and overwhelming popularity of video games, demand for the company's services is soaring.

The GameTruck concept offers prospective franchisees the opportunity to join the multi-billion dollar video game industry (http://www.franchisesolutions.com/children_entertainment_franchises.cfm). Unlike other consumer product categories that have seen a dip in sales, data from market research firm, NPD Group indicates that total annual U.S. sales of video game systems, software and accessories topped $21 billion in 2008, an increase over 2007's roughly $18 billion. In addition to joining a recession-resistant industry, GameTruck franchisees also have the opportunity to own a business that attracts a vast audience. It's estimated that 97 percent of American teenagers and 53 percent of adults play video games (according to a December 2008, Pew Internet & American Life Project study).

GameTruck brings people together to enjoy gaming in an interactive multiplayer environment. The self-powered, climate controlled GameTruck trailers are outfitted with comfortable seating, four 50 inch plasma screen televisions, enhanced sound systems and the latest video game consoles. The ease and convenience of having GameTruck trailers come directly to the consumer's site is also driving demand for their event entertainment services.

In addition to the convenience that consumers enjoy, GameTruck franchisees also benefit from owning a mobile, onsite business. A brick and mortar location isn't necessary which eliminates the real estate costs associated with a retail site and lets franchisees get into business quickly. The GameTruck business model allows for semi-absentee ownership, or a part-time commitment. Entrepreneurs with a passion for video games can act as the Game Coach who helps manage the party and provides a positive gaming role model for kids.

The simple, scalable business system includes customized web tools that help franchisees manage the business. By leveraging GameTruck's proven, popular mobile video game theater concept, would-be business owners can tap into one of the fastest growing, in-demand segments of the entertainment industry.

More information regarding GameTruck, as well as hundreds of additional franchise and business opportunities can be found on Franchise Solutions' website (http://www.franchisesolutions.com/).
