The four metro-areas have a combined population of over six (6) million people immediately exposing the company to one of the most significant markets in the U.S. "This is truly a milestone for WLFI," said Michael D'Apolito, WLFI CEO. "We've had numerous interviews for this territory but decided we needed the right player with experience, financial backing and a 'get it done now' attitude." The agreement for the Arizona territory is one of several that have been pending final discussions and contract details. WLFI expects additional new "Platinum Area Development" agreements to be forthcoming. At the signing Robert Palmer, a principal in National Franchise Center, LLC said, "the Beverly Hills name obviously has a special panache in the western U.S. We intend to fully capitalize on the success and attitude that having a name like Beverly Hills brings to this market."
