Why invest in a pizza franchise?
Pizza Franchise: Location and Financial Considerations

Of course, the franchisee needs to consider the normal factors before diving into the industry, such as their location, finances and how much time they can personally commit to running an outlet.

(a) Location

Ideally, a pizza franchise would be situated where there are large numbers of people and other industries, such as pubs, clubs, shops and residential areas. Targeting students is also a key tactic, as university towns often have large numbers of students happy to pay out for a takeaway and also become employed in fast food stores.

(b) Finances

But there are also pitfalls potential franchisees need to be aware of. Financially, it is necessary to raise a fair amount of money – a certain proportion of which must often be cash – in order to begin the franchise deal in the first place. Making sure marketing, training, product control and high standards are also met every day is also the job of the franchisee, ultimately meaning the outlet can only be as rewarding as the amount of time invested in it.

There are dozens of pizza franchises  available for you to invest in the UK & Ireland, and despite the current healthy eating boom, there seems to be little sign of the global demand for pizza and its variants waning.
