The waffle franchise, specialising in modern desserts, has joined the Point Franchise network.
Founded by Tony Fang in 2017, it wasn’t long before the Bubblewrap concept went viral on social media, receiving an impressive 33 million Facebook views. After establishing its first location in Chinatown, the waffle franchise opened its second in 2020, which can be found in Covent Garden Market. Now, Bubblewrap is looking to expand into high footfall locations across the entire UK, growing its brand every step of the way.
The bubble waffle first emerged in Hong Kong in the 1950s, and Bubblewrap’s unique bubble waffle style desserts are highly tasty and highly photogenic. If you’d like to benefit from all the bubble buzz and join this competitive franchise, you’ll be welcomed into a business family for a minimum investment of £36,000.
Franchise fees will cost £15,000, with a total investment of £100,000, but with low operating costs, you’re likely to see a quick return on your investment. You’ll also be charged a monthly advertising fee at a low rate of 3%, and a monthly royalty fee at an equally reasonable rate of 6%.
A background in food retail isn’t a must for Bubblewrap franchisees, though store management experience is desirable. Most of all, the franchise is looking for people who have business acumen, a positive growth mindset and the desire to expand their business over time. Bubblewrap franchisees must also have strong people skills and excellent customer service skills.
In return for an investment with the dessert franchise, you’ll receive location design and fit-out support, IT support, marketing assistance, operational manuals, all the equipment and stock that you need to begin, and an extensive programme of training. You’ll then enjoy regular franchisor visits and access to performance data against target KPIs. Find out more about making an investment with Bubblewrap via its profile page, which is linked above.
