Some of the world’s biggest brands are food franchises. Buying a food franchise can give you instant recognition and brand appeal, and allow you to start earning money from day one.  The majority are retail based and found in areas with high footfall such as high streets, shopping mall, travel hubs etc, which will tend to mean a substantial investment is required. Though there are some lower investment models including mobile, kiosks and even shipping containers!  Many food franhise opportunities can be developed into a multi-unit operation as well as being favoured by multi-brand franchisees looking to expand an existing portfolio. There are many food franchise types including traditional sectors such as burgers, fried chicken, pizza and subs, with notable new food trends including smash burgers, donuts, Indian street food, Asian fusion, kebabs, salads, noodles, luxury desserts and upmarket wraps. So something for everyone!
