How Much Is a Hooters Franchise
Hooters is a themed restaurant known for its great food and unique female service that is guaranteed to make customers come back for more, therefore making it an attractive franchise option for the entrepreneur.
Hooters started in 1983 when it was first opened in Clearwater, Florida hiring only female waitresses that all had a uniform outfit to work with.
The uniforms were basically tank tops and short shorts and it was the appeal of the service that garnered their clientele. The restaurant specializes in various shellfish and chicken hot wings. The establishment currently has more than 375 stores in the United States alone and also has stores available in other countries including, Singapore, Taiwan, Venezuela, Switzerland, Mexico, England, Canada, Austria, Chile, Aruba, Guatemala, Argentina and Brazil and 118 of the stores at these locations are owned by the Hooters Corporation. Despite their purely female staff the franchise opportunity management is available to either male or female applicants.
With a very attractive market there are limited locations available within the country for franchise opportunities though there are current opportunities available in Alaska. For more information contact with Hooters to get the specific details regarding franchise locations. Internationally the Hooters franchise is available at the Bolivia, Denmark, Finland, Baltic States, Belorussia, France, Italy, Norway, Iceland, and Poland.
The qualifications for franchising include the ability to develop 3 to 5 restaurants within your territory, a restaurant location with at least a population of 100,000 to 150,000 people within a five mile radius, $2 million in liquid assets and at least 5 years as a multi unit restaurant owner or operator. The initial investment necessary is a franchise fee of at least $15,000 per location, the option fee of $15,000 for each additional restaurant option within a territory and the initial investment is estimated to be $800,000 to $1,500,000 for each restaurant. Because of these qualifications it is expected that your liquid assets as well as your net worth will be higher than the expected amount especially since you are expected to have multiple business establishments existing. The total investment however is not limited to the above mentioned fees as there is still the consideration of expenses on equipment, the monthly royalties and multiple location considerations as well.
Hooters however do not offer in house financing and may offer third party financing upon request from the applicant. Otherwise you will always be given the freedom to choose a financial firm or loan option of your choice if you feel you do not possess the initial monetary amount necessary to start on your investment. Once you feel prepared to experience the Hooters franchise opportunity then you can visit their website for more information on the process you must undergo to avail of the franchise.
