Schweitert's Cones & Candy - Franchise

A Sweet Experience For All Ages!
Since 1985, Schweitert’s Cones & Candy has been a fun, family-friendly experience for everyone who walks through our doors. With the smell of freshly baked waffle cones wafting through the air, the sight of newly-spun cotton candy floating around you or the sound of milk chocolate cascading down a wall, it’s hard for a customer to leave our stores without a smile on their face.

Why Schweitert’s?
Because we’re the candy store with more!  Fudge, candy of all sorts, ice cream and coffee, there is literally something for everyone.  

And for out store owners, our stores sell more than candy.  We sell happiness, memories, good times and smiles.  When our customers walk out of one of our stores, they walk out with more than a bag full of sweets.  They leave smiling.  They leave feeling like a kid again.

If you’re interested in a business that consistently puts a smile on your customer’s face and a spring in their step, Schweitert’s might just be the business for you.

Besides being one of the hottest new concepts in one of the fastest growing segments of franchising, why else should you join the Schweitert’s team?

Comprehensive Initial Training - Every franchisee attends Schweitert’s’s start-up training in Oregon.  With a number of open, successful locations already under our belts, our expert instructors will cover every aspect of owning, running and building a Schweitert’s business.  Executed over weeks, you and your management team will spend hours in the classroom, and even more in the field, with real-world, on the job training.   

Schweitert’s’s Pre-Training Program – Schweitert’s’s Pre-Training program is designed to immerse you in the set up of your business from Day number one.  We’re not content to wait for your trip to Oregon to get you going.  Instead, we’ve created a program that guides you through every step, big or small, of your businesses set up and start up.  From license and permits to marketing and vendor management, our Pre-Training makes sure that you go from franchise approval to Grand Opening as quickly as possible.   

Marketing Assistance –  We like to think we’ve learned a thing or two about building a large, loyal candy store following.  All of our franchisees are trained in Schweitert’s’s marketing approaches.  We show you what works, and just as importantly, what doesn’t work.  We’ll share with you initiatives designed to attract new customers and others geared to making those new customers regulars. 

Complete Equipment Package – While making our fudge and cotton candy is an art, selecting the right equipment is a science. We know exactly what you need in your location and exactly where to get it.  We’ve done the research and we know what works. The result is a complete equipment package that supports the operations of your store without inefficiency or excess.   

Site Selection and Build-Out Assistance – Selecting the right site is critical to the success of your business.  Managing the build-out of your store correctly can impact the success and profitability of your company for years to come.  With Schweitert’s, we help you navigate each step of finding a site and then building that site out.   

Distinctive Image and Interior Design – Classic candy store with a fresh, modern feel, our interiors combine the best of tradition with a new, vibrant feel that is designed to give patrons the perfect place to eat, drink and create memories.
