“As we expand into the West Coast, we are pleased to have identified two franchise groups and know that Parag, Khyati, and their partners have demonstrated passion and commitment to kids and water safety,” said Chris McCuiston, CEO and co-founder of Goldfish Swim School. “We know their dedication will lead the way as they educate children to be safer in and around the water throughout Orange, Los Angeles and San Bernardino counties.”
Goldfish Swim School provides swim lessons and water safety instruction to infants and children aged 4 months to 12 years in a safe, child-friendly environment using a research-based philosophy called The Science of SwimPlay®. Each new swim school employs 50 people, on average.
“Every year, our Goldfish Swim Schools are teaching 10 million swim lessons to help reduce childhood drowning throughout the country, and we’re actively seeking proven operators in California,” said McCuiston. “My wife and I developed the franchise brand nearly 18 years ago, and given the alarming shortage of swimcare providers throughout the state, we know the benefits each lesson will bring to children.”
Currently, there is one Goldfish Swim School location in California, in Aliso Viejo, which is owned and operated by Jesal Mehta, who will join efforts to expand the brand throughout the state. Goldfish Swim School is currently seeking proven operators in California throughout Sacramento, San Diego, San Francisco, San Jose and Los Angeles.
