Investment
The total investment necessary to begin operation of a Cafe is between $652,565 and $1,750,900. This includes between $138,325-$170,000 that must be paid to the franchisor or its affiliate. They also offer the opportunity for a franchisee to sign an Area Development Agreement that will allow development of a minimum of four Cafes in a defined area. You will be required to pay the franchisor an area development fee equal to $20,000 multiplied by the number of Cafes you plan to develop, which is then credited towards the initial franchise fee for each Café you develop. The total investment necessary to begin operation of each Café developed under an Area Development Agreement is the same as that for a single unit, except the initial franchisee fee is reduced by $10,000 per Cafe. The total amount paid to the franchisor per location, is also the same as for a single unit, less a $10,000 reduction in the initial franchise fee owed.
