Why are the royalty rates higher than what is typically seen in the industry?

The higher-than-average royalty rates in our franchise model are primarily structured to benefit our franchisees by minimizing their upfront costs. Beyond the initial $10,000 franchise fee, there are no additional upfront expenses, as each store is provided on a turn-key basis. This approach allows our franchisees to start their business without carrying the burden of debt, which can be a significant advantage in the early stages of business operations.

Moreover, the higher royalties correspond to the exceptional level of support and services we provide, which go above and beyond what you might find in other franchise systems. This includes comprehensive training, marketing assistance, and ongoing operational support, designed to help each franchisee maximize their business potential and profitability. These inclusive services are part of our commitment to ensuring every franchisee has the tools and resources they need to succeed from day one, without the need for substantial initial capital investment.
