Harlem Shake® Is Expanding — Meet Our Newest Franchisee, Chris Noel

We’re fired up to share some big news! Harlem Shake® is expanding and we’re beyond excited to welcome Chris Noel as the newest member of the Harlem Shake® franchise family – and our very first franchisee from Harlem!

This opening is about more than just great food. It’s about community, purpose, and coming full circle.

Chris has spent his career in public service, most recently serving as ADA Accessibility Coordinator for the NYC Department of Parks and Recreation. A proud Harlem resident with a deep commitment to equity and inclusion, Chris brings a unique combination of passion, professionalism, and heart to this next chapter.

At Harlem Shake®, we believe in celebrating the dreamers, the doers, and the people who put their heart into everything they do. Chris exemplifies exactly the kind of dedication and drive we look for in a Harlem Shake® franchisee. We couldn’t be more thrilled to grow the brand with him.

Stay tuned for grand opening updates, local events, and sneak peeks at what’s to come. Follow us on social or visit our consumer website for all the latest info.
