At the start of the franchise agreement there is an initial fee payable and this gives you the right to use the Papa Johns trademarks, its system for preparing, marketing and selling food products, its information, specifications, know-how and other confidential and proprietary information.
Included in the indicative total investment cost, there is also some allowance for management and staff training (part of the initial fee) and initial marketing support prior to opening.
Most of the start-up costs are comprised of building fit-out and equipment costs which will vary, depending on your site. Package normally includes all fixtures and fittings, signage, internal signs, map and frame, estate agent’s fee, legal fees, franchise fee, marketing fee, project management costs, and pre-opening expenses.
