Be extremely careful signing up for a franchise opportunity. Consult with honest reliable experienced people before taking that step, otherwise you’ll end up working to make somebody rich get richer
A relatively easier operation compared to other restaurant methods
Profitability, ROI, growth are very limited unless it’s a premium location, which is extremely limiting and frustrating say if operating in the GTA. Do not expect any tangible corporate support. What is being offered is just cliche ideas but nothing to support franchisees, who make them the money, during difficult times - you are on your own. Very limited innovation and stale marketing ideas, which directly impacts restaurant financial success. The whole culture of the company changed in recent years between franchisees and corporate personnel. It has become a very coldly rigid one, no personal or human touch, every one is aloof, thinking and working like robots. Food, labour, rent, maintenance m costs quadrupled while sales and profit are extremely shrinking
At this point unfortunately they need to revamp the entire culture and go back 13-15 years to make it more about the people not corporate profitability alone
