Jeremiah’s Italian Ice® is a big crowd pleaser with a base of die-hard fans, so the benefits of owning a non-traditional franchise with us are undeniable. Some of these benefits include reduced entry costs, flexible formats, lower rent, and the ability to try out the brand as a new franchisee in a more cost-effective way. Continue reading to learn more about some of the coolest benefits of owning a non-traditional franchise with Jeremiah’s.

OPENING UP THE DOOR FOR NEW FRANCHISEES

For new franchisees just entering the franchising space, opening a business can seem daunting. A non-traditional franchise, however, can make your dream of owning a dessert franchise more achievable and with far less risk involved. When you own a non-traditional franchise, which includes locations you may find in airports, convention centers, college campuses, turnpike plazas, and more, you gain the benefit of reduced franchise fees, fewer employees, and lower start-up costs. As a result, you may feel a lot more comfortable taking the plunge when it comes to making the decision to invest in opening an ice cream franchise with us.

SMALL INVESTMENT, SURPRISINGLY COOL BENEFITS

The monthly expenses of running a franchise can sometimes be a deterrent for new franchisees who may have concerns about their finances. With a non-traditional franchise, these expenses are typically lower due to reduced square footage requirements, location, and other unique differences that set this type of franchise apart from a more traditional format. Ultimately, for franchisees who are looking to make a smaller investment, a non-traditional dessert franchise with Jeremiah’s allows them to do so while reaping the benefits of teaming up with a premium brand.

If you decide that you want to move to a more traditional location or you want to build your franchise with additional locations, you can continue to make these advancements in your entrepreneurial journey. The team at Jeremiah’s will be there to guide you every step of the way.

COMPARING THE DIFFERENCES

Both traditional and non-traditional franchises present several benefits that are unique to their particular structure. For example, when you open a traditional Jeremiah’s location, guests are specifically visiting your dessert franchise for premium frozen treats and our overall Culture of Cool. You can provide your guests with the full experience they expect when they patronize a Jeremiah’s location. With a non-traditional franchise, there may be some limitations with what you can offer due to the smaller space. However, smaller spaces are often easier to run and a great way for you to grow your ice cream franchise.

Regardless if you choose to open a traditional or non-traditional dessert franchise with us, you can expect to receive all the marketing, operations support, and training you’ll need to grow a thriving business.
