FireZone Franchising the First Firehouse for Kids

Deerfield, IL - FireZone, the first firehouse for kids, is expanding to franchise throughout the country. The FireZone is an unique franchise program developed by real firefighters, creating a fun business opportunity. FireZone specializes in all-inclusive birthday parties, field trips and teambuilding programs based on real firefighting skills. The FireZone is the first firehouse experience designed for kids and adults alike.

FireZone is the first firehouse and firefighting adventure facility for kids. The kid friendly firehouse and interactive event facility creates a fun, hands-on look into the world of firefighting. Owned and operated by real firefighters, FireZone features custom kid-friendly fire trucks, educational displays, activity stations and programs providing an imaginatively fun learning experience.

Through charitable donations, sponsorships and participation in local events, FireZone has become a positive presence in the Chicago community. According to owners Ed Howard and Chris Gantz, “It has been fantastic to be able to continue our duties as firefighters into a fun and success endeavor.”

FireZone has decided to reach out to other communities by franchising. “Franchising looked to be the best and most efficient route to expand the FireZone brand into more areas and bring the experience to more people.”

FireZone provides full franchise support services, such as complete training, a comprehensive operations manual, ongoing program oversight, and marketing expertise. In addition, Firezone will donate $1,000.00 to every new franchisee’s local burn victim organization. Interested parties should contact (877) 597-3473 or visit www.firezonefun.com.
