The franchise fee for outlets is USD 15,000 per unit, while the master franchise fee varies from destination to destination and needs to be calculated on an individual basis. In any case, our franchise agreements are valid for ten years and can be renewed for an equal time period.

How much is the royalty fee?

Our royalty fee is 4% of monthly gross sales.
