Pita Pit UK Franchise Opportunity

Pita Pit was founded in 1995 by Nelson Lang and he set up his very first restaurant in Ontario, Canada. He was driven by a desire to offer a healthier alternative to fast food that still retained all of the convenience and fantastic taste. His successful ‘fresh thinking’ concept quickly made the restaurant a success and within three years Pita Pit was franchising across Canada, shortly followed by the United States just two years later. The franchise now has more than 600 restaurants spanning the world and is looking for master franchisees for new territories to bring its delicious wraps to even more people across the globe.

Its delicious menu features a huge range of meats, salads and tasty sauces than can be customised any way possible. Every tempting filling is available rolled in one of Pita Pit’s freshly made pita wraps or piled on top of lots of fresh, crunchy vegetables if you’re looking for a lighter option. Fillings vary around the globe as the franchise adapts its menu for each country to offer the best options for each customer base, but they’re all packed with flavour and free of the guilt of most fast food options.

How much is a Pita Pit franchise?

You’ll need a fair amount of spare cash if you’re looking to become a Pita Pit franchisee, as the franchise requires a hefty investment from its partners. Estimated initial costs are between $215,000 and as much as $500,000 for large premises in particularly attractive areas, meaning its an opportunity best suited to those who have plenty of money to invest or have other successful business ventures already.

Pita Pit UK Franchises

Pita Pit has ventured onto our shores in the past, with branches in Manchester and London, but it seems the people of the UK didn’t take to the franchise as well as those overseas have. All of its previously operational locations no longer exist and the franchise has removed its UK franchisee page from the website, indicating it’s not pursuing UK locations any longer.

However, if you’re looking for a similar opportunity, or simply one in the food sector, take a look below at some of the most exciting franchises we have to offer. From authentic hummus bowls to Italian street food, we’ve got something for every budget and taste.

The restaurant franchise offers a range of business options for people looking to join its franchise. The business model works for both sit-down and takeaway concepts, making it well suited for small sites and franchisees on a tighter budget as well as those looking to build a large premises or multi-unit business.

HUMPIT is looking for driven individuals who have previous experience in the food and hospitality business, as well as the self-discipline and motivation to build their own successful business. Each franchisee will be supported fully in their journey and alongside initial training, they’ll be guided through the scary first few weeks by HUMPIT’s expert team. With a simple and clear operational model that promises good returns for those willing to dedicate their time to it, HUMPIT is an exciting opportunity unlike anything else currently in the UK franchise industry.

WOLF Italian

Serving a unique take on classic Italian dishes that blends its signature flavours with exciting street cuisine from all around the world, WOLF Italian is an exciting franchise opportunity. It serves up speedy, healthy and fresh dishes that are a tasty alternative to boring fast-food lunch options. Despite Italian cuisine having a reputation for being decadent and high in fat, salt and saturated fat, WOLF’s innovative concept preserves all of the signature flavours we love from Italian food while leaving behind the waistline-expanding ingredients.

It was founded in 2015 and has since grown to have four locations across the country, with more than 10 currently in development. It’s seeking ambitious franchisees with aspirations to open a multi-unit business over the next few years to take the tasty concept to even more customers across the UK. If you’d like to invest but don’t have the time to be fully involved in running your own franchised location, WOLF also offers a unique managed franchise programme, which promises healthy returns for passive investors.

All new franchisees will receive the full support of WOLF’s head office team. They’ll be supported every step of the way, even getting exclusive access to off-market locations in competitive areas to ensure their site has every chance of success. Each franchisee will take part in an intensive 4-week training programme to learn the ropes and will be able to access ongoing support following the grand opening of their store.

They’ll also benefit from a carefully planned launch marketing plan, ongoing auditing, continuous development of the exciting menu and access to an operations director who has more than 25 years of experience in the industry.
