Freshii - Franchise

The Mission

“Help citizens of the world live better by making healthy food convenient and affordable”

Is Freshii the right franchise for me?

Freshii may not be the right concept for you unless you are looking for an exciting new concept that is a worldwide leader in its category, appeals to millennials, is dedicated to serving up healthy, locally sourced fresh food and innovative new twists on the hottest trend in dining.

In 2005, 23 year old Matthew Corrin set out on a mission to help citizens of the world live better by making healthy food convenient and affordable. Less than 14 years later Freshii, the successful restaurant franchise he founded has become a fast-growing health and wellness brand with almost 500 stores across 17 countries. Corrin’s approach to business prioritizes the unique culture he created with the understanding that great brands are built from the inside out.  

What are The Freshii’s growth objectives?

Freshii is a publicly traded company. Today Freshii operates globally in more than 85 cities and across 16 countries in 5 continents.

Freshii has grown to over 100 units faster than McDonald’s and Starbucks did. They dedicate this overwhelming success to being placed squarely at the intersection of The Health and Wellness trend, the millennial experience and affordable entrepreneurship.

Can I reserve territory rights to develop more than one store?

Yes. At the time of signing of the Franchise Agreement you can also sign a Development Agreement defining the number of stores and area(s) you plan to open those stores. Each additional store reserved under a Development Agreement requires a franchise fee of $30,000, including a payment of $15,000 per store upon signing the Development Agreement. The remaining $15,000 is due upon signing a Franchise Agreement for each store.

How much does it Cost to open a Freshii?

The total investment necessary to begin operation of a Freshii Restaurant franchise is estimated to be from $175,500 to $581,000. This includes $41,500 to $43,000 that must be paid to the franchisor or affiliate. 

After the initial term of 10 years, you will be required to sign then current Franchise Agreement that may contain materially different terms and conditions than Franchisee’s original contract but will be for a term of 10 years.

Neither we nor any of our affiliates currently is an approved supplier of any products or services that you will purchase or lease to establish or operate your Restaurant. You currently must buy all of the furniture, fixtures, foodservice equipment, food items, beverages, printed marketing materials and uniforms, digital menu boards, construction materials and software, for the Restaurant only from suppliers that we designate or approve. None of our officers owns any interest in any approved supplier to the franchise system. 

You must purchase the Oracle point of sale system, Eigen for your transactional terminals (used for credit, debit, and gift card transactions), the First Data payment processing program, Pinnacle IP Solutions for your Internet service, phone service, fax service, security software and their software support service, and UR Channel for your digital menu board. You must purchase these software systems and programs from their respective manufacturers.
