Bella Italia operates in the Casual Dining sector. By joining its current 100 franchisees, you would become a part of a growing brand network. Opening a Bella Italia business requires a significant initial investment of ?700,000. If you intend to get a loan to cover the startup costs, Bella Italia asks for a personal investment of at least ?350,000. For most franchises, this amount represents 30 to 50% of the total investment. It is thus less appropriate for new investors. Financial assistance can be provided in some circumstances.

Another possibility to consider is Wolf. By joining its network of four franchisees, you could contribute to this brand's success. In order to start a Wolf business, a substantial initial investment of ?200,000 is required. If you plan on getting a loan to cover the startup costs, you will generally need to cover 30 to 50% of the total investment yourself. Wolf asks for a personal investment of at least ?100,000. Due to the higher startup costs, this option is not advisable for first-time franchisees.

Lastly, another brand worth considering is Caf? Rouge. There are 90 locations open so far, and the network is expanding. A substantial initial investment of ?700,000 will enable you to start your own Caf? Rouge business. In most cases, your personal investment should represent 30 to 50% of the total amount. Caf? Rouge requires you to personally invest at least ?350,000. You could potentially apply for a loan to cover the remaining costs. Given these higher startup costs, this is an opportunity best suited for most established franchisees with greater access to financial resources.
